Mark Bernstein discusses his discontent with Verizon:

To avoid a $100 service call, Verizon is practically begging me to go down the street to CableVision. It must cost them much more than $100 to get a customer; it costs them a lot more than $100 to get an old customer.

Glen Mohr discusses his discontent with RCN:

So RCN saved $60 by not crediting me for the full month and lost $230/month or more forever.
