Again, I repeat my statement. You should not have to pay extra for something you should already be receiving. If a company does not want to get you service as fast as they can (therefore also getting your payment much sooner), then that's their choice. Instead, this company is starting to offer these "expedited" services for an extra fee, which is something one shouldn't have to pay for to get service, since, of course, they could go to another provider and the the same or better service without the fee. Sounds a bit ridiculous to me.
Have you heard of Fedex/UPS paying more for Same Day, Over Night, 3-day compared to the standard 5-7day delivery time? Pretty much the same thing]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21091137 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 22:12:07 EDT Re: No thanks. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21090179 anon : Fail.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21090179 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 20:34:13 EDT Re: No thanks. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21090469 andyb : Nothing is free here.Bell charges a $55 hook up fee also.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21090469 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 20:09:13 EDT Re: No thanks. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21089398 anon :

Well this sounds like it bumps you to the front of the line, so it's an expidited install. I think I would like this, as I pay bills online and need a connection. I don't think it's a bad thing as long as the regular install is free. That should be free. An expidited, next day install or even same day install could be chargeable in my world. A 2 day charge is pushing your luck though. Let's not go down that slippery slope....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21089398 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 16:59:32 EDT Re: No thanks. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21089208 dsldude08 : Again, I repeat my statement.
