  I asked customer support what they will do about this, and they helpfully told me I could upgrade my plan by paying more money!

    This has to be illegal. No literally this has to qualify under some bait and switch law.

      In the US it’s really simple. If a corporation does it then it’s legal. If you do it then you get spend 10 years in prison for wire fraud.

        Well this is a country that has deemed that corporations are people, and women are not, especially if she has a y chromosome or dark skin, or God help her both.

        Personally I will believe that corporations are people in the state of Texas executes one

    So they created a new tier and downgraded this tier? This is some buttfuckery if I’ve ever seen it. So those that had it as part of their cell plan now have to pay extra if they want 4K? I wonder if there’s any discourse with cell providers since now they’ve been downgraded, I feel that they have some responsibility to reduce their prices as well if you’re not getting the value you were promised when signing up. But I’m pretty sure cell providers will say shut up and take it you slut and double down. Out of curiosity what’s the price differences now?
