FYI although the cops in these parts usually use ka band radar, I was recently busted on the 440 by a cop using laser. I have a decent radar detector but with laser you usually only get a signal one once it's on you, and by then it's too late. :(

After the first year call and threaten to cancel. It make take some HUCA but you should get them to offer $35 for the 2nd year. You then need to call back once a year when they try to raise you to $50. I've been doing this for many years and always got them to agree to $35.

I had no issues getting them to keep it at $30

I have the triple play.. think this would work to get the lower 1st year rate?
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals
