Re: Disagree said by major marco:said by pnh102:A lot of people (myself included) have been able to wring discounts out of broadband providers by either threatening to cancel or threatening to switch to other providers. Does this not count as a "hidden broadband price war?" Sorry, the old, a lot of people including myself story just is not credible. I want to see actual proof that your alleged "threats" to cut off services with your BB provider resulted in something tangible/credible and not a round of laughter from your ISP. I couldn't be bothered to copy my bill for you, but I called Comcast a few months back, threatened to switch to Verizon Fios and they reduced my internet bill to 19.99/nth for 12 months. |

Gee, I wonder why, think they would have done that if FIOS was not in the area? Hell no.... |
