[TriLUG] Question on AT&T DSL Extreme 6.0

[Jim]

What's your up speed?

Until this week I had the Telecommuter deal from Time Warner Business 
Class.  7 down, 1 up for $40/month with Business Class support.  It was 
a pretty awesome deal Duke had with TWC.  This week TWC decided to drop 
me to 5 down, 512 up for the same price.  I'm thinking of spending $10 
more a month for Earthlink Max offering 15 down, 1 up (I think) for 
$40/per month 6 months then $51/month.

Call  1-866-489-2669 and speak with someone from the Retention department.  If you are not on a current promotion, they will switch you immediately.  If you are on a promotion (like I was), speak with a manager and plead your case.  I got my bill dropped from $49.95 to $34.95 for 12mos after negotiating with a "supervisor".
