about advertised dsl speeds

why does everybody thinks they are going to get advertised speed? the real truth is your going get half of that speed there is no true set speeds on dsl. say your speed post be at 3.5 mbps your going get at least 3 to 3.2 mbps. I have been doing call tech support for a local ISP for almost 2 years now and we get customers saying they are paying for 3mbps service but when they do speed test they get anywhere from 2.5 mbps to 2.8mbps and we always tell them that your not going to get your full 3mbps package your only get half of what that 3mbps really is.

Its charging you for the entire steak and only giving you the bone and saying thats all you should expect. When you end up paying the full tier price (and then some) and getting50% or less than the advierised price, surcharges that are not revealed till after you are committed,little or no support, when outages occur-rude custoemr service you get the puicture AND they have the balls to say they are delivering quality products and services-what a frickin' joke.Face it, they either flat out lie to make a sale or they stall and deliberately mis-represent through vague inferences.
