1 edit | Re: I have a simple solution I will cheerfully add any telco (RBOC or other - it's not just the Bells), cable operator, cell provider, my gas and electric companies, and all those who obfuscate, hide and camouflage (additional) profit under the cloak of a nebulous, vague or misleading heading.
I mean, c'mon, it's like we need truth-in-lending or good-faith documentation from these guys every time the monthly bills arrive. Guess I just get tired of "How much is it?" v. "How much you got?"

Not too long ago... You can negate any nebulous dealer "add-ons" from the sales price with a little research - but you can't do that with your broadband provider. (Not singling-out anybody, 'cause they all do it.)
"Just add it up and tell me what it costs" v. sticking me after-the-fact with greater profit margin additional surcharges... (And I agree with you about all the "fine print" that flies by at ms speed in television advertising.)
Today is the last day of the middle of the end of the beginning. It is also the first. | |
