Re: Embarq broadband prices may be going up. Well, to give you a simple and straight forward answer, to the best of my ability I will say the following: The last company we acquired was Madison River Communications, all of their pricing structures were grandfathered. So, I would imagine the same process would be used. We do the same for our current pricing structure, if you have a rate for DSL that you've had for two years, and then we increase it, well, generally your rate doesn't change until you make a change to your account requesting such. So, as of right now, I wouldn't be too worried about your current pricing being changed.

I currently have Dry-Loop DSL with Embarq with 5Meg/768K service and Static IP for $55/month.
Service has been very reliable, probably rating with 99.9% uptime and rarely any thruput issues. Speedtests usually run at 4.5M/650K, so not quite up to the rated speed but close.
One thing I like about Embarq's tiers compared to CenturyTel is more tiers and higher upload speeds. Embarq's 10M service has a 896K upstream but Ctel's max is 768K.
Will our upstream speed change under CenturyTel? Will our tiers be grandfathered under CenturyTel?
Also, I see no mention of Static IP option on CenturyTel website. |

kudos:2 | We do offer static IP's, and it is likely your prices/speeds/etc will be grandfathered. But I cannot give any definitive answer to it since it is really not up to myself, just going by the history we have here.
