I think the fact that the sales teams are still using the same excuses in an attempt to sign ISPs on this plan opens up a great defense case for a lawsuit for those who have been forcefully disconnected, if someone had the money and time to do it.  However, lawsuits suck, and the telcos have way more money than we do.

        1) Contracts are only as good as the money you are willing to
        spend suing the other party.  I have literally had a big telco
        say go ahead and sue us, we have lots of lawyers.

        2) It seems standard practice to raise the price above what
        the contract says via random fees, the belief seems to be that
        fees are an act of god not covered by contracts.  And if you
        don't agree, refer to #1.  I remember one provider adding a
        fairly substantial property tax recovery fee mid contract.  I
        asked what property this referred to, and of course they
        basically laughed at me.  They would invent all sorts of
        bizarre fees just to get around the price stated in the
        contract, these new fees would just appear on the latest
        monthly bill with no explanation.

        Salespeople of course will do anything to make quota and
        commissions, especially since they will probably be gone by
        the time your contract comes up for renewal.  They are
        "agents" of the company with the power to make commitments on
        behalf of the company, but again, see #1.

        We are in a business of contracts.  And if it says they an
        change the contract, that's there for a reason..
