Re: [DSL] VDSL - 25/7 Congestion said by dillyhammer:said by crazypants:customers are paying $68 a month and they should get a reasonable up-to speed.
For every DSLr user that would come here and lambast TSI for a weak connection, there are 20 Gramma Jones's and 20 Uncle Bobs that'll pay $68 a month every month without ever looking at their bill and be thoroughly ignorant of what they're getting for that $68. They connect. They get their email. They look at their Facebook. They're happy. That's it that's all. Customers like us that are analyzing every bloody bit byte and baud are a total pain in the ass and barely worth the trouble. Mike i don't really think that is TSI's target market. it's also really bad form to oversell a service, this isn't the 90s anymore. |

North York, ON | I still think I'll make the speed upgrade from my 5mbit profile instead of switching to a Bell profile.
I can probably still live with the Teksavvy bandwidth inconsistencies as they are offset by Teksavvy's overage policies - Bell's max overage charges are 125GB and $80 Max (vs Teksavvy's 200GB and $20 + off peak hours)...
Bell's ability to give me true to speed will just bring me closer to their max cap 
Anyone disagree with my reasoning? |

| Yeah I think we all agree that you are better off staying with Teksavvy's just for the awful 125GB cap and $80 Max for overage which would pay for a 2nd TSI account! |

Their customer base changed when they started advertising on billboards, buses and on TV. |
