I have two discounts. One is for being with Verizon for so long. One is for autopay. I set up the internet with a free device about two months ago and it was easy and the best connection I've ever had.

I'm not fond of the fact that the price just went up, and Spectrum doesn't exactly have the best reputation or track record, but the service has been fairly stable and consistent (even with some notably bad weather in the past year) and its stable enough to work on, so I can't complain.
