Comcast increases TV and internet prices in 2021

You will have to pay more for Comcast’s services starting next year. The company will increase its prices for cable TV and Internet, and according to a price list posted on Reddit, they will be effective January 1, 2021. According to the poster, the new prices are for the Chicago area, but Ars Technica confirmed that the price increases affect all customers in the United States. Comcast’s “Broadcast TV” charge – the amount subscribers must pay to cover the costs of providing local stations on cable for each region – are reduced from $ 11.70 to $ 16.20 $ for Chicago customers. The exact amount varies for each location.

TV customers will also have to pay an additional $ 2 for regional sports network fees. As Ars note, that’s an extra $ 78 for charges that aren’t even part of Comcast’s advertised rates. Even customers with promotional rates will have to shell out this additional amount, as the two fees are not part of the promotion. All on-demand subscriptions will cost $ 1 to $ 2 more. Meanwhile, all Xfinity Internet plans will cost an additional $ 3 across the board.
