http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_O7GSFWKs0Sometimes I swear they do this intentionally.. the megabit per second advertisement: As most users think of Mb as megabyte, which is actually 8 megabits.
some sites even mix this up, speedtest.net used to list megabytes when it was actual measured by megabits. I believe they fixed this. But point is, I swear they try to be as deceptive as possible with the terminology.

Do you tell them you will just flat out cancel or do you tell them you will switch to someone else? I mean it's a good trick and all but most ISPs tend to have a monopoly in their areas so it's not someone could threaten to switch. Personally, it's either Charter cable or dial up for me, and I'm kind of thinking they'd call my bluff if I told them I would switch to dial up.I call Comcast every 3-6 months (or when my special pricing is about to end) and ask to be transferred to the retention dept. From there I explain that I will cancel my services due to losing the introductory pricing for internet. Amazing that every single time I do this, they always find a deal that keeps me at the same cost

I am in the processes of still sorting out the mess my ISP has left and hopefully can get the concrete evidence I need to call back to ask why I was diliberately miss lead and lied to by a customer service rep after calling up to find out why my ISP had failed entirely to deliver on what they promised.I call Comcast every 3-6 months (or when my special pricing is about to end) and ask to be transferred to the retention dept. From there I explain that I will cancel my services due to losing the introductory pricing for internet.

Man these spammers are geniuses...put (NO SPAM) in the thread title to hide the spam. It's brilliant. Hopefully this doesn't catch on...what if rapists wear signs that say (NOT A RAPIST)? They will be raping everybody! D:
