I loved my ISP until this past week-end, where I found out that since they upgraded their offerings last year (we got free increses in speed and bandwidth, yay!), they also removed the maximum they could charge for going over the cap. I also learned that the email I had put on my ISP profile was used for all their communication sspam EXCEPT the bandwidth alert, which went to the ISP-specific account no one ever uses.
Around the 20th I saw I had done a ton of HD streaming and had gone over my cap, reaching my maximum (so I thought) charge already, so I thought I might as well dld everything I wanted for the next month, which is something I had done once before. Then last week-end I saw my bill had $140 additional charges
Called and complained, and it was a pain. Tech finally agreed to give me a $50. It was someting but I was still bummed. I had always had great service and a better experience than with other ISP, and had been a client for many years with no complaints. 5 mins later the tech called to say he had cleared all the overcharge, as trying to enter just a $50 discount was a pain and it was simpler this way.
So I'm unsure how I should feel about my ISP right now. They didn't really care, and they are lazy, but I got my money back.
Slice of life.
