Re: BYOA needs to be cheaper

How do you get this? My g/f has AOL and her parents have DSL, so she pays $15 a month just to put a front end on the DSL connection (and she pays half the DSL connection because they got it for her).

I've tried telling her she's paying too much and she could save some money, but every time I get her to call they tell her the $14.95 thing, and she doesn't argue about it and hangs up. She will never need the Dial-up, why don't they (AOL) be straight about that and offer only what's needed?

Call AOL. Tell them you think $15 is too much and threaten to cancel. You will get get a least a couple months of free service. Then they might tell you how to get the cheaper BYOA.
