<description><![CDATA[anon posted : The telecs certainly do their share of "trial come on pricing."  All Broadband providers regularly offer promotional pricing/rebates to gain new customers.  The particulars are always changing, but the promotional aspect will always be out there.  That's one of the main reasons why the jury is still out as to whether Verizon FiOS will generate a return on investment that will be comparable to their competitors.    ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[RadioDoc posted : True.  But many people consider that sort of business practice dishonest and won't keep calling every three or six months to cancel and be handed off to retentions. These are supposedly new subs.<br><small>--<br>Toolmaster of La Grange.</small>]]></description>

Ask Sirius XM Radio about promo subscriber churn...<br> </div>Relatively high given that either 1) The consumer has no equal alternative choice so either keep the services at the regular price, or downgrade, but maintain service with the company; 2) When threatening to cancel, or even downgrade the service, the cable company offers the customer another, similiar or even better promotion that keeps them.<br><br>Dare I say that if you currently have 2 or more services with your cable provider, and you are paying regular price for both of those services, then you aren't playing their game right. ]]></description>
