Astound offers a Price for Life option that locks your monthly rate permanently, but it comes with a small additional fee. Here is how to determine whether the Price for Life guarantee is worth the cost and how to get the best deal on your Astound internet plan.
Astound Broadband's Price for Life program is one of the few permanent rate lock options available from a major internet provider. For an additional $5 per month, Astound guarantees that your internet rate will never increase as long as you maintain service. The Gig WiFi plan at $45 per month with Price for Life for a total of $50 provides gigabit speeds with permanent rate protection. The 1.5 Gig plan at $65 per month with Price for Life for $70 total offers even faster speeds with the same guarantee. For customers who have experienced Astound's steep post-promotional price increases, the Price for Life option can save hundreds of dollars over a multi-year period. However, the math depends on how much your rate would increase without the lock. If your plan would jump from $30 to $78 after the promotional period, the $5 monthly Price for Life fee pays for itself within the first year. But if Astound's standard rate for your plan is only marginally higher than the promotional price, the lock may not provide enough savings to justify the additional cost.
