3 3 mona plasma more and more americans are cutting the cable and getting their entertainment online from sources like netflix. but you still need internet access, and more often than not, that also comes from the cable company. and now one major company is charging for extra data. money expert stacy johnson has some tips... 3 vo according to leichtman research, the mean monthly bill for pay-tv in 2015 was around $100: an increase of nearly 40% since 2010.vo that's one reason why so many americans are dropping cable and finding free or cheaper entertainment online.standup: so what's a cable company to do? well, if you're comcast, you might make up for declining subscriber revenue by charging more for internet access. and in some cities, that's exactly what they're doing.vo in dozens of cities nationwide, comcast has

what they deem excess internet usage. which typically means if you use more than 300 gigs a month, you pay more.standup: i live in one of the cities where comcast is doing this. thanks largely to netflix, i often exceed the monthly cap. vo here's my usage for january. by the 19th, i'd already used more than 400 gigs. i'm capped at 300. standup: my only options? pay extra when i go over, or pay an additional $30 a month to keep the unlimited data i had before.vo as you might imagine, this isn't sitting well with consumers. as of mid-december, according to website cutcabletoday, more than 13,000 complaints have been filed with the fcc. so how does comcast defend their new practice?vo they declined our request for an interview, instead sending this statement, which says, in part: "our data plan trials are based on fairness a, those who use more, pay more and those who use less, pay less." standup then website but that's not true. people who who use less don't pay less: they pay the same. bottom line? charging for what used to be free is for now confined to limited comcast customers. but the practice may spread. want to learn more, including where you can complain, and how to cut the cable, go to moneytalksnews.com and do a search for comcast. for money talks news, i'm stacy johnson. suggested anchor tag: as stacy said, he's got more information and links at his website. to get there, just go to ours and look for the money talks link. 3 hello. i'm mark hyman.we may be witnessing the final days of afghanistan. let's be clear. it's been populated with warring tribes for centuries. no one expected it to become an overnight success. still, there had been vast improvements following operation enduring freedom. this was the operation to strike back at al qaeda following the 9/11 attacks. that operation was largely successful. the taliban was pretty much run out of business.after investing eight
