We currently pay over $50 / month for 256K DSL. A CenturyTel rep called today offering 1.5M service for about $30 /month on our other phone line. That would go up to $40 / month after the intro period. When I asked about upgrading our current account, the rep said that would cost over $60 per month, because the lower rates are only for new accounts. He claimed that to get the new $40 standard (post-intro) rate for 1.5M, we'd need to cancel the current account, then wait for 30 days and re-apply. I pointed out that this was counter-productive for both CenturyTel and the customer, and that it would be more practical to upgrade existing customers and charge the new, standard, post-into-offer rate. The rep said that he'd pass along my input, in a way that suggested they'd toss that into the circular file. I could sign up for a new account, and overlap the two accounts while we change over to the new e-mail addresses. We don't use the current primary username for e-mail, but we did create three additional CenturyTel usernames / e-mail addresses, and they're in heavy use. So I'm wondering whether there's any way to transfer our old, additional e-mail addresses over to our new account? Or else to upgrade our current account to a higher speed at the new standard rate? Thanks in advance for any constructive replies!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20980688 2008-08-20 16:12:34 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21004791 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21004791 2008-08-25 16:16:23
