Good to see BELD finally move towards the 21st century. I was a former customer but jumped ship to FIOS in February as soon it was available in Braintree, One of my reasons for the switch was BELD's tortoise like pace in adding HD channels that were worth anything. As of my switch, they still did not have ESPN2 HD, something everyone had over a year early and they had not added any HD channels in over a year. Just after I left, they added another worthless one, WGN HD! Whoopie.
BELD definitely lost customers due to FIOS coming to town...looks like 8 months after that fact, they are finally starting to fight back. However, their picture quality, especially on the non-HD channels cannot compare with FIOS. Their support is great though....being in the town, you can sometimes get service the same day as when you call.
“Getting too close completely blurred what we saw to the point of incomprehension, but again, this shows a whole heap of potential that's fascinating to us.”
