Re: Unbundled but contracted

I have standard unlimited local calling, call waiting, & the newly renegotiated 768 down package for $19.95/mo. When I get my MJ and cancel my local landline service, the DSL will unbundle from the landline and require a 1 year contract regardless of speed.

"unbundled loop" is the phrase the phone company used for dsl without phone service years ago.

There is a dsl direct basic package 768/384 (dry loop) priced at $19.95 with a one year term

There is also a lineshared basic package 768/384 priced at $19.95 with no term

Since you still have att voice service I think you purchased the lineshared basic package and that may or may not get disconnected when you end the voice service

I was told that when I decide to discontinue landline service, I would have to agree to a 1 year dsl contract. When I do drop the landline, I will be able to afford getting the 6mb package again because the MJ is so much more cost effective at this point, but not until then.

The only dsl direct package that requires a 1 year term is the basic package
dsl direct express, pro and elite packages are "no term required"

I was told by 2 separate reps that if I unbundle, it will require a 1 year contract regardless of speed. I'll have to call back and have a talk with them.

Edit to add:

Seems that when I asked to be downgraded to the 768 package the system put me at 384/384 for some reason. However 1 phone call, 1 transfer, 1 disconnect, a call back, another transfer, and all told about 95 minutes, I had the problem fixed.
