Whale! Yesterday I was offered an 'upgrade' to include TV and/or a phone,
but I declined.

When I finished bitching about the slow speed that I was paying for and
the fact that I've been a customer for the last 5 years, they offered me
an upgrade to 6Mb/s for less than I was paying for, as it turned out,
1.5Mb/s...

It wasn't much of a hassle, but took about 50 minutes to accomplish.

Speedtests today indicate 4.4Mb/s, a bit slower than 6Mb/s, but I'm happy
with the results.
