Internet provider Frontier today announced the launch of a new promotion that will see the company providing a free Apple TV 4K to new customers who sign up for a new 2 Gigabit Fiber plan.

According to Frontier, customers who opt for the 2 Gig plan will be provided with an Apple TV 4K to enjoy 4K television content. Priced at $150 per month, this is Frontier's highest-priced internet tier, but it also comes with a WiFi 6E-compatible router and extender.

Along with offering customers who sign up for the 2 Gig plan a free Apple TV+, Frontier is also providing three months of Apple TV+, a promotion that is available to all new and existing Frontier customers regardless of their internet plan.

Frontier's website says that the promotion is available for both new and returning Apple TV+ subscribers, so even those who have already tried the service should be able to get three additional months of Apple TV+ access.

Before our international MR brothers and sisters remind us how much we are being raked, this is a fairly sweet offer on a competitive plan for the US.

It's not like you have a choice of ISP, and even if you do chance are they don't offer 2 Gbps down. So any signup offer is a perk they didn't have to offer.

For those in the know, how is Frontier's service quality in comparison to Comcast or Suddenlink?

Personally only had an issue once, and that can happen for any provider. Living in the mountains but have access to 500/500, even the 2Gbit but don't have the need for it. It's lovely. Pretty sure some love/hate each and every single provider out there, so ... but I've been quite happy here.

Frontier may have a downright terrible customer service department, but when I had their fiber plan it was basically rock solid for years without any issues. Now on Ziply and still no issues with connection.

I don’t have much need for 2 Gbps down — or even 1, really — but the up will be very nice… once they finish this fiber install (maybe this month) and I can get rid of 200 Mbps down and like 15 up. It will be less per month and looks to have basically a $150 rebate.

Our cable company is a pile of garbage, but the only thing WORSE than our cable company...is FRONTIER. Sorry, but they can stick those Apple TV's where the sun don't shine. I've been burned on them once and once is all it takes.

That was true of their old DSL service. Their new fiber is pretty amazing.

Yeah, customer service is horrendous still. But have not had a single hiccup on fiber.

I suppose all huge ISPs are pretty bad when it comes to customer service, but Frontier took horrible service to a whole new level.

$150 is a deal compared to rip-off COX Gigablast

You ain't kidding
Out our way, we spell it "Cocks"

They are one of the worst mega-corps out there in my view.
Horrendous -- HORRENDOUS -- customer service and price offerings and policies.

It's an abusive relationship with them, start to finish

(with them for 20 or so years at a shared family house with zero alternatives)

I could not find if the Frontier deal includes unlimited data or not. Even the fine print didn't say.

I just wish USA internet prices weren't as expensive as Europe or any other country.... I somehow got a 1 year deal for $60 for 1gb ATT fiber. But that's gone after a year and will get even more ripped off.
 
I’m paying comcast close to $300 a month for cable, internet, and VOIP. America!

That's the problem...lack of competition. Here in San Diego, half the county is Spectrum and and half is COX and nowhere do the two co-mingle. Most places you have the choice of ATT, but that's going from bad to worse. On my street, AT&T fastest offer is 75Mbps internet (practically DSL).

We are on that AT&T deal...the fiber itself is actually really, really good, and the service has been good too. The price should only go up $10 after the deal ends, then we'll see what happens. I live in SoCal, so the options can vary from place to place, and where we live AT&T fiber is by far the best deal. We'll see if they decide to ramp things up though, they have a tendency to do that with their plans.
 
"this is Frontier's highest-priced internet tier, but it also comes with a WiFi 6E-compatible router and extender."

Translation: It comes with substandard network equipment that we can manage and control, charge you excessive rental fees for that become pure profit within a year, allow our employees to monitor your internal network, ensure that you have to use our DNS so we can monetize your internet activity, inject content as we see fit, and even create (especially for ones like Xfinitiy) free hotspots using your equipment and bandwidth.

No thanks. I'll buy my equipment.
