It's not that. It's that they just are not informed enough of what to do. They only see the P/L statements and don't see the way to bring in more people or make more people loyal.
And technology moves on and improves. 15 years ago a 1.5mb T-1 connection cost around 14k a month. Today you can get it for less than $500 and get a near reliable 20+mb connection for less than $200.
I think that is true but the issue is that they buy and pass the cost on to us for the total bandwidth whether or not it is used. In IT it is simple, Bandwidth is the size of the pipe total download amount is what is used. The average company pays for Bandwidth but uses much less than that "pipe" can do in any month. But they charge us as if we did.
I had Clear WiMax from the day it was available in Atlanta. I left them over a year ago because they "Managed my Bandwidth" too often because of "over usage".
I dropped to less than 56k speeds for more than a day anytime I tried to watch a Netflix video at the same time as I downloaded a large file after I moved to a new house in a more affluent area. Even though my monthly usage never changed it averaged the same for ever month for the last year.
Well you say they did it because I was sucking up too much bandwidth during peak times. I say false. The bandwidth I used (85% of it, by their charts) was used during the slow period during the business day. (I do IT support so I would be doing support and watch Netflix during the business day.)
I wasn't a heavy user by any measure. 3.6GB a month.
That "throttling" pushed me away from Clear and also stopped me from recommending them. Before I saw that I was making around $1250 a month recommending them.
In the year when my service was good I had over 600 people and companies sign up for Clear.
Funny I put two tags in my post but they are not showing. (The 2 empty lines. See how well it works, MI5-7) Here they are is a way that maybe they will show.

Also I previewed it this time to make sure it works.
No I waited because nothing was worth it. As for spending so much. (Children come first) Really? $16 for three formats? I think that is an OK amount. I got what I needed and a future format (for my house). Sure the digital version was close to shit but it was there even limited. Better than I can say for the usual fare they dish out.
The $30 was for viewing movies just released in theaters.
So the thinking was that you should pay more to be able to watch the movie on a smaller screen and not have to pay the $25 dollars you should for crap popcorn and flat soda.

Re: My solution to being capped
Look to the generational differences with regards to answering the phone.
I always answer the phone unless it just would not be appropriate. Because I grew up with the idea that all calls were worth answering.

Those tags should be pretty much used anytime I want to keep state secrets.
