# oxio vs. Distributel

Distributel's plans look fine on paper, until a few extra line items show up and the rate jumps after year one. oxio's invoice has one number on it, and it's the same number every month.

## FAQ

### Is oxio available where I currently have Distributel?
Most likely — oxio rides the same leased cable network as the major providers in your area, so coverage usually isn't the limiting factor. Check by postal code to see the plans available at your exact address.

### Does switching from Distributel to oxio cost anything?
No signup fee, no shipping charge, no equipment fee. The price you're quoted at checkout is the price on your first bill — nothing extra shows up once you're already a customer.

### How long does switching from Distributel take?
Usually just a few days from signup to being online. Keep your Distributel service active until oxio is confirmed working, then cancel — that avoids any gap in your internet.

### What happens to my Distributel equipment when I switch?
Return it through Distributel's own process once you've cancelled — oxio ships you its own equipment regardless, so there's no overlap or workaround needed.
