It would be extremely interesting to see Comcast try to quantify excess bandwidth charges for an individual user.
In my specific case, Comcast was much more concerned about losing my CATV business than they were losing my HSI business. |

That I agree with. It could be they simply ignore the CATV/phone side of the equation when deciding who's profitable, at which point you could properly punish them by leaving. |

Which is exactly my point that I mentioned earlier. Punish me for 'excessive' bandwidth usage when there is no pre-determined cap defined in the TOS/AUP and I'll go give a different company my money. -- Browsing with Mozilla Firebird 0.6.1 |

| comcast: you have exceeded the amount of bandwidth allowed in our tos even though we have no set number and just send this letter at will. someone at comcast needs to get their act together... keep this up and real users will start dropping like rocks. I've heard that optium online has been doing this as well. (this is why to get dsl if available at a fixed speed with no usage limits(or implied usage limits for that matter) |
