Found a new deal on their site recently for "up to" gigabit internet with basic TV for $80/mo after all fees/taxes, $15/mo cheaper than what I was paying previously.

They came in and hooked it up a little while ago and I've been testing between 300-950Mbps down and 30-40Mbps up on wired connections (all cat6, gig+ adapters) and a steady 200+Mbps on wireless connections.

They don't guarantee any speeds, but said if it drops below 155Mbps they'll "look into it". If it stays above 300Mbps on average I'll be fine with it. That's a ton of bandwidth for the 4/5 devices that I run.

Pretty happy with it so far - anyone have any experience with Verizon/Comcast offerings and what speeds they're actually hitting for $X?

OP just got fios gigabit last Friday. mY first bill is 72.48

Here are my speeds all the time:
