Re: Unhappy Business Customer

You get what you pay for...plain and simple. If you are a business who is wanting to bypass the mishmash of legalities and buried TOS/TOU issues, do not go with an ISP who caters to the average consumer.

I am so tired of this attitude when it comes to T1 vs business class cable or dsl...

It's not like he gets business dsl for free. And you can bet it has a higher cost compared to residential as well. What is that extra cost for?

Is it not true? If the OP was willing to fork over the extra money for a dedicated line, there would be no issues.

They are already forking over extra money.

Why settle for a slower, more expensive option?

The extra cost for the business DSL is to cover the extra bandwidth that businesses tend to use. Whether or not that model still holds true today is a different topic of discussion.

In any case, carrier services are a completely different product than cable or DSL Internet services. Not only are there completely different service metrics (complete with SLAs and financial compensation for outages/service degradation) but the support systems are completely different as well.
