I posted a few weeks (months?) back about moving down to Monmouth County. We found a house, offered, accepted, closed, and everything has been moving along great. We moved all of our stuff in yesterday, and were excited to have Fios installed in the house this morning, between 8-12. We had Fios on the calendar for at least 3 weeks.... until they emailed last night, and had to cancel the installation because of this strike. Apparently, there are just no technicians available to install the service. The next potential installation date they gave us is May 17th... or 3 weeks from now!
I had my heart set on Fios. Everything I've read is that Verizon is the best way to go in Monmouth County, and better than Comcast. I'm coming here to ask if everyone agrees with this, or if I should just go with Comcast and expedite the process. Does anyone have any other tips to get service installed sooner, or know if this stupid strike will end anytime soon? It's going to suck moving into a new house, with a brand new tv, and no cable or internet for more than 3 weeks. Does anyone have Comcast, and think it's good enough to use instead of Verizon?
