Xfinity Choice TV Plus Package
The first and least expensive TV plan from Xfinity, Choice TV is a solid way to get your local TV channels and a very basic lineup of programming. Specifically, you get 10 core channels (and about 35 total) for $20/mo, totally contract-free. It has 115 less channels than the next plan, Popular TV, so obviously a big difference. Overall, Choice TV is a streamlined plan that gives you just the basics and, most importantly, is plenty easy on your wallet.
- Over 10 live channels
- Free Cloud DVR (20 hrs)
- All your local channels
- Access to X1 DVR
- Autopay discount available
- Can be bundled with internet
- Music Choice channels

First off, the Choice TV plan includes all your local channels. That's the biggest draw here. Some of those locals include ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, CW, PBS, Telemundo and Univision. That's the core group. You'll also get a second set of more niche local channels: ION, ION Mystery, Crossings TV, Ideal TV, MeTV, UniMás and more. Government and shopping channels are also included: C-SPAN, HSN, QVC, etc. All told, you're looking at about 35 channels (exact total and lineup depends on your area).
Fee-wise, the only major charge added to your bill is Xfinity's "Broadcast TV" fee. It's a general fee all Xfinity TV customers pay for access to local channels (which is most of this plan). Check out our TrueCost section below for the full details.
PERFECT FOR: folks looking for local/public news and light entertainment programming.

TrueCost: Choice TV+ Plan
Your Xfinity bill is increased by two fees: Broadcast TV and a residential government fee. The Broadcast Fee gives you access to local channels and is a requirement for all Xfinity TV subscribers. It currently costs $30.5/mo. The government fee is usually a few bucks a month and depends on your exact location.
As far as discounts go, you can save $10/mo if you sign up for Autopay and paperless billing. Especially for this plan, that's a very easy way to slash your bill by 20%. Here's the full cost breakdown:
Frequently Asked Questions
Can't I just use an antenna instead of paying for Choice TV?
Sure can and if you have access to a bunch of local over-the-air channels, definitely try that first. Your only cost is an HD antenna. Test it in different spots in your home and find out how many channels resolve (reliably). If it's not enough, you can always fallback to paying for Choice TV.
Does Choice TV+ go by a different name?
Yes - it's also sometimes called the Basic plan (depending on your location). You'll get the exact same lineup and channels, regardless of name.
What if I don't need or want the X1 DVR?
Since this is cable, you need a receiver of some kind to convert the coax signal to standard or high definition. While you may be able to get an older Xfinity receiver, the X1 has so much upside for most folks, it's the one we recommend most.
