When I signed up for my Cell Phone I had a pretty good monthly rate with usage at the time I signed up. Naturally I had a year contract with em. I was happy!!

But then 5 months later my wife went to T-Moblie as well, got a very similar usage package as I did, and it was cheaper!! Naturally she signed a year contract!!

Well my year contract was up last summer. I went in demanding that I get the same deal my wife did, and told them how I was pissed how 5 months later she was able to get it sooo much cheaper than me..

Well in the end I ended up getting even more minutes than my old plan and my wife's combined and at an even cheaper rate!!

The moral of the story is, I wasnt getting ripped off.. Its the nature of the biz.. What someone signs up for one month isnt going to be the same 4 months down the road..

The naure of the biz evoloves. As bandwith gets cheaper and cheaper, and as the company gets bigger and bigger the price comes down..

No one is getting ripped off and for anyone who wants to come to Jupiter they arent qoing to find a better deal anywhere for the quality. And for those of you who signed contracts a few months back, at the time you werent going to find a better deal than that anywhere. And when you renew the same will apply and you will get the best deal possible at that time..

We've all seen the prices in our cell phone plans drop year after year as we renew our contracts... Well the bandwith biz is the same. At an even faster rate.

No one is getting ripped off. I mean are you really upset with your rate? Shit its sooo fucking low already, and its just getting lower.

You should be happy.
