Re: Nexxia throttling?
If bell is saying that they are throttling certain area's down to below 30kB/s because they can't cope with the traffic that is sold to you and which is resold to the user. Then a complaint for a cost reduction needs to be put in with Bell since they are admitting they can't provide the service that teksavvy is paying them for, and in turn that cost reduction should also be passed on to the users who are paying for below 30kB/s internet. Don't know if thats possible, or if i made sense, or how they work.
But what I'm saying is, why should Harry in Montreal pay 40$ for 5-meg internet and Dick in Toronto pay 40$ for the same service at dial up speed? Why should Teksavvy have to pay full rate as well when bell admitted they can't supply you?
Will this throttle soon spread out to other area's or is there only a predefined area at the moment? What area's?
Is it perm? Estimated length of time?
Are all the other wholesellers affected as well or only Teksavvy?
Should users believe bells side of it, or should they believe this is another strong-arm tactic by bell similar to when they tried to strong-arm you into removing the login access?
Many questions come to mind...
Good luck with your meeting next week! |

| The "leak" mill is definitely busy. As I understand it in one rumour, Bell is throttling 3rd parties in areas where they have the equipment to do so, and intend to extend that to all areas.
I don't see what legal right they have to do this and I hope somebody will raise this to the Department of Industry Anti-Competition bureau. |

for sure

If this is true, I see price fixing, competition fixing, collusion, cartels, raketeering and so forth.
I would be banging on the industry ministers and the CRTC's door fast. |

Now, with the news that Rogers is applying the same 60-gig throttled limits as Sympatico, and with dissemination of a leaked Sympatico document announcing further changes to its bandwidth policies, she’s wondering if there’s more to the situation than meets the eye, with the phrase ‘price fixing’ front and center.

Let the rumours fly.
This should also probably be front page news on dslr.
Should follow this up with as many wholesalers as possible to get their side of whats happening. hmmmmm
Anyone game for an interview? |
