Could we also do this for ISPs, so many fees ranging from rental fees, upgrading fees and just generally shitty pricing and shitty deals

Not to mention "locking ghe price in for year" but it still goes up 5$ every month. Fuck bell

Im using Teksavvy, it's about $65 bucks for 40/10 dsl, no bandwidth limit, for the past 7 years. It's not fast, it's not cheap, but they don't block incoming, and they don't change the price. It's worth it to not have to deal with bell or rogers.

"not cheap" is an understatement, that's abysmal

I always assumed just like a cellphone bill the price you "enter in with" is the "agreed price" and that contract can't change unless you cancel or switch to another plan.

IIRC it applies (at least for cancellations)

Yes please, I live in one of the few if not only province that still has competition in regards to ISPs but I still feel nickel and dimed.
