SBC, which markets DSL high-speed services in partnership with Yahoo,
said the $19.95 a month plan, effective Nov. 1, is available for new broadband subscribers or for customers
looking to switch from cable to DSL.
To qualify for the low-priced offering, customers must purchase SBC's $48.95 a month
unlimited calling plan, the company said. The new plan -- SBC Yahoo DSL Express -- offers
download speeds of 384 Kbps to 1.5 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 384 Kbps. It also comes
with increased e-mail account storage, safety and security features and a parental controls
package. comp.dcom.xdsl NewsGroup Archive: by date:: Miles Promo. Re: Verizon Outages DoubleClick cuts jobs, sees ad slowdown John Navas. Re: WHERE CAN I BUY DSL FILTERS?

The $19.95 price point is available for the full year and is the cheapest bundled
high-speed package available from the Baby Bells. SBC rivals Comcast
and BellSouth have also been aggressively reaching out to new customers with
price-based promotional discounts. Business News for IT Managers:: Daily business news stories on the Internet, computer and high-tech issues SBC Cuts DSL Promo Price - 10/28/2004. Apple Update Patches QuickTime - 10/28/2004 http://boston.internet.com/news/archives.php/200410HOME |
BellSouth, for example, hawks a $9.95 package for six months that offers limited-speed
connectivity. By contrast, high-speed access from cable companies cost in the neighborhood
of $30 to $35 for monthly service.
SBC's latest move follows the launch of a
$1.99-per-month Wi-Fi service
for customers who subscribe to SBC Yahoo DSL. The reduced rate -- which is less than $29 for both --
requires a one-year commitment.
SBC companies account for more than 4.7 million DSL lines in service and projections are
for more than 5 million DSL subscribers by the end of the year.
Separately, Comcast said it added 549,100 new high-speed subscribers in the third quarter
this year to help improve its financial results. The company said it now has 6.5 million
broadband subscribers.
Cox Communications also announced growth in high-speed subscriptions
this quarter.
