No. We continue to take on customers. Comcast offers a 200 which we all agree most people aren’t using. Really it’s marketing more than people need it.

Now my 20meg customers downgrade to the $50 plan. > On Apr 7, 2018, at 15:44, Adair Winter <ada...@amarillowireless.net> wrote: > > Increase speed, do not lower price. > Are you up against competition that is driving you to need to offer speeds > that fast?
