Only then it was Ameritech sticking it to us with "line problems" then having them magically disappear when they cut the CLEC out of the equation.
Ah, the M.O. for SWB back in the day too when dealing with local CLEC's around here. "Can't be fixed.. change to SWB if you want broadband... ah look line is fine now... welcome to SWB"....

Was not enough for them to kill us mom and pop isp's off back in the 90's by charging us the same rate for a DSL line as they charged a customer. Now they've got government permission to migrate customers to FTTN and deny us access to our customers if they switch.

This should be illegal. Crap like this is why so many are unserved/underserved.

Good to see that this is all still the same. These were the exact same tactics deployed to our customers some 10 years ago way back when I installed DSL. Only then it was Ameritech sticking it to us with "line problems" then having them magically disappear when they cut the CLEC out of the equation.
