Is Verizon Fios worth the cost?

Verizon Fios TV is a good deal, both for its variety of channels and price per channel. While you can technically find less expensive TV, you’re not likely to get as many channels as Verizon Fios offers—upward of 400 with the top-tier plans. Additionally, the entry-level Your Fios package lets you personalize the channel selection. This means that while the channel count may be lower, you actually get content you’ll watch instead of a bunch of filler channels.

Before digging too deep...

Make sure Verizon Fios is available in your area.

Want to bundle TV with other services?

If you’re looking to bundle, Verizon Fios becomes an even more attractive option. The Fios internet service is one of our top-ranked internet providers, with fast speeds and great prices. You can also add home phone service (if you still use it).

Premium channels and add-ons

Verizon Fios TV has a unique way of bundling premium channels. Instead of paying à la carte for each channel, you can choose whichever premium channels you want and pay a flat fee based on the number you choose:

One premium channel: $15/mo.
Two premium channels: $25/mo.
Three premium channels: $30/mo.
All five premium channels: $40/mo.

You can choose from the following channels:

HBO Max
STARZ and STARZ ENCORE
SHOWTIME
Cinemax
MGM+

Sports fans can add a variety of additional channels with the Sports Pass add-on for around $15 per month. If that’s still not enough, you have access to the usual dedicated premium sports channels, like NBA League Pass, MLB Extra Innings, and MLB.tv Premium. International packages are also available. Prices for these packages vary.

Available add-ons vary based on your location and TV package. Visit

Verizon Fios's website

or call 1-833-970-0848 for more details.

Switching to Verizon Fios?

If you’re switching to Verizon Fios TV, the main thing you want to consider is how many set-top boxes you need, and how many of those you want to have DVR capabilities. Beyond the starter box (and included DVR service with higher-tier packages), you’ll need to pay monthly for these. There’s also a $99 installation fee, but it’s typically waived if you order service online.

Better yet, new customers who order both TV and internet service may qualify for a $500 rebate to cover early termination fees (ETFs) from another provider. You may also be eligible for discounts on gear, gift cards, and more.

Savings tip: Verizon Fios often has

sign-up promotions

for first-time customers. Call 1-833-970-0848 to ask a rep about current deals and discounts.
