Xfinity Blast Package Review


About a week ago we installed our Xfinity blast from Comcast and I have to say I’m not very impressed. Yes we get a good internet speed, but since we have to have everything wireless we don’t get the speed we pay for.

The channel line up sucks and what I hate about this is that you can’t add a higher channel package to the blast internet. I would be very willing to pay $10-$15 more to add the 40+ channels. You can however add the movie channels to your package.

Here are the channels you get as of Jan 2014

QVC    
HSN    
Cartoon Network
Lifetime    
History  
A&E    
E!    
Comedy Central    
Spike TV      
USA Network 
Fox News Channel 
CNN
The Weather Channel
Food Network    
Animal Planet
TLN    
BET    
ShopNBC    
TV Guide Network
Discovery Channel 
Comcast Network 100 
CSPAN 2  News & Info  
Cable Marketplace 1
Cable Marketplace 3
EWTN    
Jewelry Television    
Music Choice  Music 

It’s not too bad, but as an interior design major, even if I’m not using it. I really want HGTV and it would be nice to have TNT. Really I would love to see just a few more tv options and less music.

Price wise it’s not bad, but I’ll be honest since I use wireless I don’t get the speed they say I get, so I’m thinking I may once I get into my new job switch to something with more TV and less internet, it’s just not worth it since I won’t be on the internet as much.

  1. I don’t use Xfinity and I agree with you the channel line up does leave a lot to be desired. Thank you for sharing this review.
