Can confirm AT&T service is intolerable. In fact even the helpless, no-nothing person that finally shows up to help you but can't will usually admit it. they have no organization. No ability to manage calls. It's like a company operating in 80s Russia. I have never seen a DMV office that was more dysfunctional.

I canceled my Dsl about a year and a half ago. all they did was ask me how they can keep me, i said its easy, can you offer me the speeds comcast has? they said, no, and that was that. I said well call me when you can! lol Was fairly easy.

That means that within 3 hours of me calling to report the problem, they had a tech at my house fixing the issue. That is GREAT customer service.
did you have to pay?

All plans I have access to in topeka have a data cap. The highest cap is 500gb and the speed isn't much faster than what I already get but the price is twice as much. My cap is currently 250gb.

I've always thought it was kind of shady that Comcast and Time Warner agree to not offer service in the same territory in the KC area..so they don't have to compete with each other. They literally have an agreement with each other to do that. Another name for conveniently being able to control the price and quality of the service

Yep poor old ILECs I almost want to shed a tear for them

Comcast and Time Warner are in the process of merging. They will likely be the same company soon.
