Verizon expands its industry-leading FiOS TV service in New York. Verizon is now taking orders for FiOS TV in parts of the Long Island communities of Deer Park, Dix Hills, East Meadow and Levittown. Verizon also has expanded service to more households in Commack and Huntington Station. The company already offers FiOS TV in more than 100 New York communities. Verizon also has been granted franchises by the Town of Islip, Floral Park, South Floral Park, Bronxville, Scarsdale and Yonkers, and will launch FiOS TV in these communities soon.

Service Highlights

Verizon's FiOS TV Premier package delivers 200 all-digital channels for $42.99 per month. The package includes 28 high-definition (HD) channels in the New York market and access to more than 8,600 on-demand titles, 60 percent of which are free. Sports fans subscribing to FiOS TV Premier in the New York market will also receive the YES Network, MSG Network, FSN New York and SportsNet NY at no extra charge.

All Verizon FiOS TV-eligible customers in New York have the option to trim their monthly bill by bundling FiOS TV service, FiOS Internet service and the Verizon Freedom Essentials voice service – all for under $95 a month.

Verizon offers three set-top boxes: standard definition for $4.99 per month; high definition, which includes HD channels, for $9.99 per month; and a dual-tuner, HD-capable digital video recorder for $12.99 per month.

Verizon also offers innovative features not available from other providers, such as Home Media DVR (digital video recorder) and FiOS TV Widgets. Home Media DVR, at $19.99 per month, has a multi-room DVR feature enabling up to three simultaneous viewings of recorded programs without requiring customers to set up a complex home network or buy extra equipment. Customers also can access photos and music on their PCs and play them on their TV. FiOS TV Widgets is a free interactive feature that provides viewers with local weather and traffic information while they're watching their favorite shows.

In addition to New York, Verizon currently offers FiOS TV in parts of California, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas and Virginia.
