Re: You forgot to mention :

Oh, I get it, you're assuming everyone uses BT and also needs to use 200 GB of bandwidth every month! How stupid of me to forget that every single customer on the Internet does that today.

Thank you for the clarification.

Don't be a smartass. I'm not assuming anything. I'm simply stating some facts about BS that were not mentioned in the review and that might influence a user that cares about those things to make the right decision in regards to his needs.

And while i'm at it, here's one more thing : BS Phone Technical Support sux beyond belief. Be warned if you ever have to call them.

Isn't that what ALL the reviews are for, not just one? And last I checked, many reviews already state what they perceive as the value of the service (whether negative or positive).

My point is, what's negative to you is not negative to others. So there's no need to add to someone's review if it doesn't belong there since it's not your review. It's not your POV.

For example, you state "Low Caps for what you pay". That's again, your opinion, not a fact since the value of a service is a matter of perception. I may think Honda's aren't worth the price, however you may thing otherwise. Again, perception of value.

You also mention P2P. If this user doesn't use P2P, then how does it apply? How does it apply to anyone else who sees this review and they don't use P2P either? What if their in an area that isn't traffic managed?

And then you question their rating based on what YOU perceive the value of the service is?!

The review is by the reviewer not by you, so keep you 2 cents and write your own review.

If not don't piss on everyone elses.

You know, the reviewer has yet to respond to any of this. If the user has no idea what P2P is or if he doesn't care about caps, then good for him/her. I'm just stating some facts about BS services so that potential users know what they're about to get into. Where's the problem with that ? Yes, it is my opinion that the rating this review gets is way too high as there is not even a mention of the shortcomings of BS. Feel free to take it as you like, this is obviously just my opinion. Hopefully, potential BS customers will read this dialogue and make their own, potentially more informed, decision on whether they should sign up with BS or not.

Easy there. Yes, i'm just adding up some points that the reviewer missed or wasn't aware of. I'm actually doing you a service by adding more information on table so that you can make a better decision about BS internet service. I'm not pissing on anyone's parade here.

He mentions good speed yet states he's only on a 3 meg connection and is paying for either a 5 or 7 meg connection. I can't see this as being good speed. He's been on dsl reports all these years yet forgets what sympatico did to the newsgroups throughout the years.
