I am a little naive when it comes to finding out how to save on various items but this week I felt quite proud of myself. My connection charge for DSL went up at the end of my year long contract with SBC from $26.95 to $49.95! I saw in the newspaper that they will be offering a much cheaper rate to new connections so I called the 800 number on my bill to ask if I qualified for a cheaper rate. I was told I did and that in future my bill will be reduced back down to the $26.95 rate and they can go back two months in the billing so I will receive a refund for the overpayment. You can bet your life I will be watching my phone bill in a years time to see if the rate jumps up again. So if you have a contract like mine make sure to check if you can get it back down and get a refund. Pity I couldn't qualify for the $19.95 rate that they are going to offer to new customers. :-) Are there any other agreements out there that I should be aware of? Janice
