Many households and businesses in Mississippi sign up for several different communication and entertainment services, like telephone, Internet, cable television, and cellular phone. Paying for these services separately can really add up, especially when each service comes from a different provider. Since companies who offer multiple services wish to retain customers for all of them instead of just one, they put together bundled services, meaning that one can purchase two, three, and even four services that are included under the same bill for a discounted rate. This eliminates multiple monthly bills and allows for the convenience of one-stop-shopping.
In Mississippi, one can choose from a number of service providers to sign up for bundled services that range in price and features. For example, with AT&T, one can choose from the basic bundled service-- telephone, Internet, and basic cable-- or they can add features like premium cable stations, higher speed Internet, or long distance telephone calls for additional fees. Customers can also choose providers like CenturyTel and BellSouth.

Many internet providers can provide bundled services such as including high-speed internet and land-line phone usage. This can include AT&T, known as SBC Global, Comcast, and Clear.
The prices depend more on what services you are looking for. If you are just wanting a small family plan with shared minutes and no other services, then bundle plans would be cheaper. If you want all of the internet services and text messaging, then individual plans may be cheaper. Again, it is all dependent on what services you want with the plan.
The price will often depend upon which market you live, with lower prices being available in those areas with more competition. SBC has recently run a promotion offering a bundled phone and DSL service for $29.99 for the period of one year and then $49.99 thereafter. The actual prices you are offered may vary and you should contact SBC directly for a quote.
It depends on which internet provider you use. But usually bundled cable and internet will run around 80 to 100 dollars.
