Finally got to read this one: ISP’s charge too much, and I agree with this article linked

Hello folks,

Michael in Tennessee sent me this article titled ISPs claim broadband prices aren’t too high—Biden admin isn’t buying it from Ars Technica.

My story is this. While I started at my current location at $50 for the first year, I now pay $63 for the same service. I’ve not bothered to change because the cable companies want to charge me $5 just for WIFI. What I get includes WIFI, and I have stuff connected already so there isn’t any reason for the moment to change.

I’m going on my third year at this location, and when I saw that AT&T charged me $63 I called to ask. I never get a bill notification, so I don’t know when the bill is ready. The rep said that the price went up $3.

After my first year, the price went from $50 to $60. That’s now $13 higher in two years. Its definitely gone up, and I hope it doesn’t go up much more, or I’ll have to tell them I can get it cheaper. Even paying the $49.95 is cheaper, but they advertise at $44.95 plus $5 for WIFI. That turned me off.

I think this article should be read, it is definitely worth the discussion. How much has your internet gone up since you started paying for it? Let’s discuss!
