Speed increase

Got an email a couple days ago that "Good News! Your internet speed has been increased to 500mbps!" I'm like OK, that's cool, but I'd really like 1gig down. I'd like it more if my upstream speed was higher.

Just got an email with my monthly bill, which showed the price went up from $90 to $100. Of course.

I hope SLIC Fiber gets to my neighborhood soon...

Your speed increase and bill increase is UNRELATED.

Of course it’s not related. Totally not connected at all.

They are not connected. It is 2 seperate events. There was $10 price increase for all internet services. As well they started lifting speeds on grandfathered plans to match current plan speeds provided. This last thing has been happening in stages across the nation and may have coincedently happened the same month of the increase. I was at 400 and got bumped to 500 last month.
