I fought with Century Link over the FTTN speeds and refused to pay
a penny after the first weekend when only their speed test met the
speed expectations.

<div class="">I signed up recently with
CenturyLink and we agreed to a $50 <br class="">
discount off the price of the modem.
Now I got the first bill<br class="">
</div>
</div>
and no discount. I called them and they
said they could only <br class="">
give me a $25 discount -- something about
how that was all <br class="">
that was available at the time I signed up.
I didn't get the<br class="">
</div>
</div>
</div>
terms we agreed to in writing so I just said OK.
But at least I <br class="">
</div>
can let others know of what happened and maybe help
you<br class="">
</div>
avoid the same mistake. <br class="">
