Ah, OK. I, too have a business account, since I needed the fixed-IP for my mail/ web servers. I'm not running a business here, so I'm otherwise residential. But I made the mistake of bundling. That turned my phone into a "business" phone, and there are different do-not-call rules for businesses. I've been paying for it ever since with constant telemarketing calls to "update my google listing" and "apply for small business financing", etc. I finally got fed up and went through the process of un-bundling and transfering my phone back to residental service. At that time I had 25/25, and noticed that the slowest offering they had was 30/30, so I called and they upgraded my service to the higher speed without any hassle. This is the first time I've seen the 15/5. They must have realized there was a demand for a (much) lower-cost offering. I've since dropped their phone service entirely and ported my number to Vonage. I get much better service/features, and my phone bill is only $17.50/mo. I also notice that their current bundle promotion for 50/50 is less than I'm paying for Internet-only.... Maybe I should give them a call. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
