Better than what my family pays I get like 800 channels, 20/2, and unlimited calling for like $115 a month. Sadly it's the fastest internet in town unless I want to switch to comcast.

The internet alone is worth that.

Well I assume it's your parents that's going to pay for it, in which case it's up to them to decide.
 
What is considered "a good deal" depends on your current financial situation and what you are going to use it for.
Do you need or would it gibe you a significant better user experience by upgrading?
Are you in a financial situation where you can afford the quite high monthly cost?
 
If I were offered that, they I would say no because I am a college student and don't have a lot of money.
If I was a not-so-tech-savy parent I would say no as well, because that's a very high monthly cost and I would probably not see the benefit.
If I had a good job and lived in an apartment by myself I would take it.
 
 
 

unlimited domestic calling (whatever that is)

Don't quote me on this, but it seems like Verizon classifies any phone call to a location within US territory as well as Puerto Rick and Canada, a domestic call. A domestic call usually means a call to someone in the same country as you.

Ahh yeah that's what I was thinking. But yeah find a way to convince them to get higher internet speed it really makes a difference when you're downloading things.
