How many of you are paying over $50 or $100 a month for internet? Just a heads up that if you haven't you should really renegotiate your bill.

It’s that time of year when you’ve had your Internet Service Provider for over a year and they decide to raise your monthly bill. Do yourself a favor and get that price lowered if you haven’t already.

Call them and simply say your bill is too high. Keep your cool. Stay calm. Don’t get frustrated. They’ll claim there’s nothing they can do — that’s when you ask to be transferred to the cancellation department. They’re the only ones with the authority to actually lower your bill.

Tell them your bill is too high, that you’re a loyal customer, and that you see they offer lower rates to new customers. Tell them you want that price, and don’t give in. They’ll try to talk you out of canceling and offer add‑ons they claim will “save you money.” Don’t fall for it. The moment you say their offer isn’t good enough and it’s not fair for them to raise your price while advertising lower rates (and maybe even higher speeds), they’ll cave.

Got my bill down to $40/year for 600 Mbps. Enjoy. Aloha!
