Re: Hey hey....

The FUSF has nothing to do with the price break.

FUSF started Feb. 1st of 04 on any new orders and any packages. I think SBC just wants the lowest price for DSL.

Nonsense. Price is lowered. Then it's raised. Then the FUSF, which is just a price hike in sheep's clothing is introduced, and then the price is lowered again......

Did I miss something in that timeline?

Yeah because I believe it was $26.95 then FUSF then $29.95 and now back to $26.95.

They should just charge $28.50, ditch the FUSF, and stop confusing the children.

Yeah, really...just a horse of a different color. They could charge $19.95/mo. and then add-on charges like "DSLAM Depreciation Designator" and "Provisioning Percolation Procedure" and "Customer Conundrum Charge" and "Router Reduction Recoupment" . . . to make the customer's actual cost whatever they wanted regardless of the advertised base price...

According to the Bell groupies, consultants, and employees I read on here, users shouldn't care about totally fabricated fees.....

You shush yourself and pay that "copper collaberation and asset recovery" fee that isn't actually a fee...and you like it!

Talking about it means the terrorists win.
