Jules Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I was gonna post this on the shoutbox, but it was kinda long and didnt wanna spam, so anywho: So today i found out my ISP Optimum was billing me the same internet ive always had but had somehow reduced me internet speeds from 60down 10up to 20down 5up after the promotional period was over due to an accounting error. So even though my internet price increased due to promotion ending, my internet speeds were lowered? makes no sense. Anywho, due to the error they are now giving me 100down 30 up at no extra cost... still, i feel i let them off easy for the mistake they made, considering ive been getting slower internet than what ive been paying for since mid October 2017... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakesterwars Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 As long as they give you that speed forever, I think you won out on this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakesterwars Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 You will when you are downloading and streaming. You'll have less buffer time overall, especially if you're doing both and whoever else is using the network in your house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaleous Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 The best internet speeds I can get in my area are "20 down, 10 up" but I am throttled to hell and back, so I get about 1.2 down, ~1 up. I don't pity you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maikro Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 its okay, wont matter your speed soon, because everything you try to access will be throttled by your ISP now that net neutrality is dead 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
