Comcast Universal Caller ID

Comcast said this month that new technologies will help bring together the company’s digital cable, high speed internet and digital voice offerings with the launch of Universal Caller ID and a mobile application for the iPhone or iPod touch.

Comcast Triple Play subscribers in Oregon and Southwest Washington can now view incoming caller information on their TV and computer screens with the Universal Caller ID service for no extra cost.

The company is also touting its recently launched Comcast iPhone mobile application, which lets users access services such as email, voicemail, movie trailers and TV listings.

Universal Caller ID allows customers to see who’s calling while watching a movie or on the internet and the ability to answer the phone or ignore the call without having to rush to the handset.

The caller ID feature displays the caller’s name and phone number on a pop-up banner on the TV or computer screen and the customer can answer the phone or select “exit” and go back to their favorite TV show or online activity.

Comcast’s mobile app, available as a free download for Triple Play and SmartZone customers, gives users the ability to forward home phone calls to the iPhone, view cable TV listings or watch trailers of movies featured in On Demand.

There was no announcement in regards to how long it will take for this new technology to be expanded to the rest of the States and metro areas that Comcast services.

Comcast Triple Play versus AT&T

We heard complaints about AT&T’s triple play… Here is what one customer said:

“You’ve probably seen the ad on television, “phone TV DSL”, offered by AT&T. Is it a good deal? Compared to services offered by traditional telephone service providers in the past, yes. Compared to what you could get by doing some research yourself, no.

While AT&T advertises bundled telephone, DSL, and satellite TV service for around $75.00 a month, you knew there had to be a catch didn’t you? The catch being the advertised price is not the end price. You’ll also be bound to a contract.

Did you know you could be getting a much better deal on those services if you just do your homework? About an hour doing the research could save you a big hunk of money every month. Sure, you’ll have to pay separate bills, but with the money saved, it’s worth it.

Let me give you an example. You are probably looking for phone, TV, and DSL services. Let’s discuss the promotional rate and the end price on each of these services. Keep in mind, these examples will reflect basic packages with no add on’s.

Satellite TV from dish network will cost you about $19.99 a month for three months then go up to $31.99 plus $5.00 for DVR service in two rooms. Movie channel packages range from $12.00 to $40.00 a month. The end basic package price with 2 DVR’s is $36.99

DSL or Cable broadband Internet from both ComCast and Earth Link will be around $19.99 to $29.99 for the first three to six months, depending on your service area. In most cases It will be $19.99 a month for the first six months then go to around $45.00 regular rate.

Broadband telephone service or VoIP from Vonage is about $15.00 a month for unlimited local calling plus 800 long distance minutes a month. Now, don’t fall over, but this is not a promotional rate. This is the regular rate for basic service with Vonage.

So what we have now is phone, TV, and high speed broadband Internet for about $55.00 a month for the first few months, that’s $20.00 a month cheaper than AT&T. In the end, you’ll be paying less than $100.00 a month for the services just mentioned.

So the next time you are looking for a good deal on bundled packages, keep in mind you’ll save a whole lot more if you just take the time to bundle your own services and spend an extra five minutes each month paying your bills separately. That’s an hour a year folks.”

Folks… You won’t get this from Comcast!  Comcast’s triple play is the real deal.  You get what you bargained for and nothing more.  So, sign up for Comcast today!
