WEST BARNSTABLE – Sandwich State Representative Randy Hunt is hosting a cable cord-cutting workshop on Tuesday at Cape Cod Community College.
Hunt will walk attendees through some of the alternatives to cable and satellite TV, how they work and how much they cost.
Those that participate will also find out how to use their internet connection to eliminate landline telephone service.
“The problem that we run into is that home internet service is way too expensive and that creates a big part of the bill that you’re paying, that you may not even realize,” said Hunt.
There will be two seminars with the first taking place from 3:30-5 p.m. and the second from 6-7:30 p.m.
Hunt said that he is working hard with his partners to encourage better pricing and faster internet speeds by introducing competition.
But he is encouraging everyone to attend the event to better educate themselves.
“You’ll have an action plan and you’ll have in your hands a pamphlet to let you know how to go about doing it to save money,” said Hunt.
