    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I told them I have voom and they offered me the $400 / 16 mo deal. Over the phone they explaned that the installer may want to verify my last bill from voom, but when he arrived he saw the dish and didn't even ask for paperwork.

    Pacers game on TNT and PQ
