When I signed up in 2020 I had gig speed for $45 with the new customer discount. After year 1 they tried to raise it on me and I went back and forth with them until I said I wanted to file a complaint and then they let me stay at $45 for another year. After that expired it jumped up to about $70 and I just chose not to fight them this time around

26 a month RCN. They tried to up me to 80 after a year with all this BS about equipment fees etc. had to call 5 times telling them I was going to cancel each time coming down a few dollars, until they gave me the original offer. The song and dance is annoying just be firm.

The equipment is irrelevant they say that and lie about why the price is what it is. What you need to say is very firmly “I would like the original offer of 26 a month” they’ll tell you they can’t do that just keep repeating it calmly eventually they’ll talk to their supervisor and give it to you, they can’t hang up.

I see I have to channel my Karen energy on this one and ask to talk to the manager 😂
