Business rates do not always = SLA. Business prices are generally where they'd like to have prices and residential rates are cheaper, well, for several reasons - one being that most people couldn't afford OR WOULD afford the product. However, business is benefiting off the product and "typically" uses more of the service than residential.

Dial tone is dial tone, yet it's must more expensive for business as well and until recently used to be a measured rate service on top of the higher monthly dial tone charge.

SLA, when it comes to business, has never been automatically included just because it's a "business" account.

I wasn't trying to bust your chops. I wanted to point out that it is a business rate vs residential. I would call back about the SLA if I were you and still interested. That is about the only thing that differintates the two things. I wonder if someone told you the wrong thing?
that's very possible. I would have been interested in that speed package for $150 a month, but I simply can't afford almost $300 for internet. I'll probably call back just to see if she was wrong about the SLA...

Not a fair comparison by MarkyD. He is comparing residential pricing to commercial rates. He knows this as it has been posted in the Cox forum.
Dude, business pricing with NO SLA. That's as good as residential service as far as I'm concerned.
that's all I really have to compare since 15/2 is not offered on a residential basis in OKC.

Price and lack of congruence across all markets as far as speed offerings go.

15/2mbps in NoVA=54.95.
15/2mbps in Oklahoma =$279.95.
