Is Xfinity worth the cost?

Xfinity internet service is generally an excellent deal. Pricing is competitive from the lowest end to the gigabit tier. The highest-tier package, Gigabit Pro, is the outlier at hundreds per month. However, you also get an incredible 3,000 Mbps. That’s probably unnecessary for most families, but it may be worth it if you need the fastest speeds possible—for example, if you transfer large files over network-attached storage, download or stream a lot of 4K content, or have multiple simultaneous streams going in your home frequently.

Switching to Xfinity?

There are two main things to be aware of when switching to Xfinity internet service. The first is that a professional installation will cost you $89.99. The second is that most plans require a 12-month contract. This is shorter than the traditional two-year contract, but many providers have moved away from these service agreements entirely, so it’s disappointing to see it with Xfinity.

Canceling Xfinity services?

If you cancel Xfinity service and you're still on a contract, you’ll be subject to a termination fee (ETF) based on the amount of time left in your contract. The ETF seems to start at $110 and decreases by $10 for each month you’ve had service—so $70 if you’re canceling Xfinity internet service after four months.

If you're not on a contract, you can expect a 2-year price lock with an increase of fees of about $10 in year 3.

Costs to consider:

Self-installation cost: NA
Professional installation cost: $100
Equipment fees: $14+/mo.
Additional fees: NA
Contract length: 12–24 months (but not always required)
Cancellation fee: $110, or $10 for each month remaining on your contract
