Re: It's all a scam...


So much for 'unlimited'
I had gotten a 'nasty gram' from Comcrap last year but it doesn't seem they're sending them out any more. That in itself wasn't that big a deal but this just a few months after they stopped advertising their service as "unlimited". Not just 'always on' or some other BS marketing term but they actually used the term unlimited. I called to find out what the cap was and they wouldn't tell me what the cap was when I called but to just 'cut my usage by half'. It's like American Express...no spending limits yet they will decline purchases. The cap is there somewhere since at some point a nasty gram got triggered.

I wouldn't have such a problem with caps or throttling if they would just say what the restrictions are like Cox and even DirecPC does. Then people can make a fair assessment as to whether or not they think the price is a good deal or not.
