The cable companies always seem to lose their bottle sooner or later. I have fond memories of them losing their bottle on pretty much everything.
Anyone remember their trying to insist that people give up retention discounts in return for broadband upgrades and ending up both upgrading people gratis and giving them deeper discounts?
This ignoring upgrading people's tiers in areas that hadn't had the necessary network upgrades for much the same reasons - they have no confidence in the product and rely on discounting for retention.
You have to feel for the poor suckers who pay full price.
