| att cherry pickin In CT, U verse was held up in courts over these franchise laws. The AG Blumie said "att would cherry pick towns and deploy their product without serving the "WHOLE" towns. " Guess what.... they do some streets over others because some DA's are larger and got better "results" in engineering, for the number of households fed. This met project goals and got management great bonuses. They just chose the "Bang for the Buck" PLAN, Inner cities and dense lower Middle-class communities got Uverse. The Meat and Potato middle class and the Wealthy in the woods, with $400,000 to $1 million dollar homes get cable or Dish. OR NADA.
They got this Hugh "banana" on a map cut thru the state and if your outside the FruitLoop... T.S. They told sales that after 2009 "that's all folks". They plan no major tidying up the few thousand DA's that didn't feed less than 500 customers. Isn't this what the AG said they would do? Isn't this cherry picking? The laws deemed that the "WHOLE" town get's service. They hit the dense areas only. The poor can't get Uverse due to credit score restrictions. So if you live and work here in Conn., you would know, we're "rural", 30 min commuters, more than city dwellers. Look at our traffic, you get the picture. So we all build our nice homes out in the woods, just where att isn't going to serve. Reverse discrimination of the wealthy ODD?
Too few homes= no rapid return on investment,is the only mantra, to the bean counters.Blinded by statistic and data matrix they see deployment with little or few sales. They wonder why?
Yet, when people come out of their homes, actually go out- side, to ask the techs, "when are they installing Uverse?" just ,because " I HATE comcast". No kidding, then marketing is run by MORONS and planning has got their heads up their bonus driven asses. I see were Uverse will sell but, I don't run this company. Any Company that spends more money, to get out of work, than it would ,if it really invested in the community is driven only by greed. Fair? NOT Customer concern? NOT. No different than VZ selling VT,NH, ME to Fairpoint dump the rural because cows and sheep don't need TV.....SAD. |
