When I first signed up for AT&T dry DSL, the service was $29 a month for a 3mbit line. That line might've been a little slow for 2007, but it was dead reliable (I believe it only went down once or twice over the time I had it), and the price was really unbeatable.
Then the prices changed! Mine seemed to hang at $34 for a while, even though talk of a $40 service plan was looming. Meanwhile, I found out AT&T U-Verse was selling 6mbit standalone service for $35 a month.. hrmm!
After a failed U-Verse install (too far from the vrad), I was without internet for 10 days, the soonest possible time AT&T could schedule an install for the DSL (again, ergh). When that was done, I had already had cable internet started up.. I called to inquire about the install (I much preferred the DSL and crappy service to a really expensive cable bill), and here's what happened:
Despite being a loyal customer for ages, and trying to get their new service - despite having no internet for 10 days with them, they were going to charge me $44 a month for 1.5mbit service.
$44!!!! WTF?! That's ridiculous!
I canceled that all the way back in may and they still can't make up their mind whether they owe me money or I owe them money!
