Ponzi Anyone

It's consistently rewarding for users to threaten to cancel in order to get the best deal, though it's increasingly difficult to do so without getting locked into a long-term contract.


Next up, signing on the dotted line for the same fun & games you get when you agree to a cellular contract. The provider lures you in with lowered monthly rates at the same time you see decreasingly lowered k/bps due to overselling. Voila. Business as usual. This is SOP for the providers. The provider gets to oversell the service just like cable broadband service and just like cellular service. Price fixing for life isn't a deal, it's an MLM scam disguised as Internet service.

I've never looked at canceling a cell contract for poor serivce, but it's not a big deal with Verizon's DSL. If you have a history of bad performance from them, there usually isn't any hassle about waiving the ETF.
