I thought it was just waived until July for existing customers.? That's what the website about the changes says.
This is from a website about the changes.
"CREDITS TO YOUR ACCOUNT
You have participated in a long-running promotional offer where you received discounted pricing on your 2-TV receivers by connecting them to a phone line. That promotional offer expired on January 31st. Because you are a valued customer, we have provided receiver credits on your account for six months."
So that means in July the charge will be back and I think new customers are getting charged now.
Its included in the cost of the receivers now.
Yes in 6 months you will see a $5 increase, But its not because your phone lines aren't plugged in.
Everyone will be paying the same prices in 6 months, whether you have a phone line plugged in or not.
Its just that Customers that Had their receiver connected to a landbased phone line before Feb. 1 are getting a $5 credit for 6 months.
Yep, then you will be forced to plug them back in or switch providers after you realize you have some paperweights since you won't be able to do anything with the receivers any longer.
