I already stated that i never payed my prior ISP for their service because of the issue that a contract requires certain services to be rendered within a given requirement. Signing a contract for a bandwidth speed is binding, to both the customer and provider.
If you are paying for 6mbit cable, and are only getting an average (on the 95% rule since thats how the ISP's figure it) 3mbit then they have overstopped the bounds of the contract, and you as the consumer no longer are obliged to pay for the service. This does end up in the loss of service from the ISP along with your name being blacklisted by them for life.
Small claims court isnt worth it anyways, you lose the money in fees and what not. Not to mention customer support is two hours of one stupid elevator song on repeat with the occasional, "A customer service representative will be with you shortly."
But the point of the post was to let people know that if your being hardcore screwed by your ISP with falsified advertisments you can get off without making payments for the poorly rendered service that was provided.
Its kinda like signing a contract with a whore that she will provide enjoyable sex for set price, and then you dont enjoy it. Then you dont you dont pay her and walk away saying, "poorly rendered services, you didn't meet the contractial agreement."
