Comcast’s Xfinity is one of the largest cable and internet service providers within the United States territory. Wondering how to get Xfinity internet service without the bundle package of TV and/or phone services? Here’s more on pricing and the options for standalone internet service.
Internet-Only Plans and Prices
Xfinity offers three main stand-alone internet packages without television or voice services bundled in
- Performance Internet - Just $29.99/month for the first 12 months with Downloads up to 100 Mbps. They, however, drop the price to $76.95 for the subsequent months after the promotion period is over.
- Performance Pro Internet – $39.99/ mo for 12 months with internet speeds of up to 200 Mbps. The regular price is $96.95/month.
- Blast! Internet - As low as $59.99 per month for 12 months with web download speed of up to 400 Mbps. The regular price is $93.95/month.
Altogether, if you agree to pay the lowest promotional price, you can get Xfinity internet service starting from $29.99/month for the first year of your subscription at the speed that would suit most families. This may cause the prices to fluctuate slightly in different geographic locations.
You'll also want to factor in equipment, fees, and taxes
- Xfinity takes $14 monthly fee for the router rental and also offers the option to use your own router provided it is compatible.
- In extra charges and fees, expect to be charged almost $10-15/month on top of the basic monthly rate.
- Regarding taxes, they differ from place to place but are approximately ten percent in most places.
Additional service packages involving Xfinity TV Packages and phone services also exist for those willing to go with one bill for multiple utilities. If you don’t require the additional services in this offer, then consider those labeled “internet only” only.
Internet Speed Requirements
Essentially, when selecting the right xfinity internet only package, then the speed of the internet is the only differentiating factor used. Think about how many devices you expect to be connected and what kind of processes happen in your household.
Here are rough guidelines for internet download/upload speeds based on usage
- Basic web browsing, email, social media: 5-25 down/3-5 Mbps up
- Streaming HD video: minimum 50+ Mbps down
- Multi-device households: Down: 100+ Mbps
- Large downloads & uploads: Offering 200+ Mbps download speed with 10+ Mbps upload speed.
The Performance Internet plan enables a family to stream, use the internet for meetings, and other essential needs in most households while the Performance Pro and Performance Blast are ideal for internet speed needed for 4K streaming across the household devices and large households.
More specifically, they include contract lengths and other important print.
Xfinity Internet only has a promotional price for any given package and it is valid for one year. A month after the first year has come to an end, you will be charged the normal monthly fee. Early cancellation charges differ based on whether the cancellation is done during the term of the agreement and are as low as $100.
However, like most ISPs across the country, Xfinity also puts in place policies such as data caps and overage fees on their plans. The standard allowance of data for use per month is 1 terabyte (TB) which is equal to 1,024 gigabytes (GB). Going over will cost an additional $10 for every 50GB block above the included quota, up to a maximum of $100 monthly.
With a WITt unlimited data, which costs $30 more each month, there are no restrictions as to how much data you use so there are no overages to worry about.
They are also offering free access to Xfinity WiFi hotspots to home customers when they are on the move. To sum up, promotional offers are appealing, but customers should not disregard the regular rates and possible charges.
