October 25, 2015 RE: Unfair Internet Data Limitations On Friday October 23, 2015, I received a call from Comcast that my account was over the account data limit. Up until this point, I didn’t know there was a data limitation on the account. At the time of purchase, there was no online documentation stating a 300gb data limitation. Nor did the Comcast representative selling me the plan discuss a 300gb data limitation. I have an Internet only account because Comcast continues to go up in prices on their packages. Only a few years ago, these packages were reasonably priced. Now they are very expensive. My current Internet package is $29.99 a month 25mpbs for one (1 ) year. In my neighborhood, Comcast is the only Internet provider offering 25mpbs or more. A decent speed needed to conduct Internet activities. Current charges on my Comcast account is showing $116.95/mo for internet services since my account is over the 300gb data limitation. This is very unfair to have a data limitation on Internet usage. FCC Will Get Serious About Data Caps if Comcast Moves to Impose Them Nationwide May 12, 2015 “An operator the size of Comcast absolutely will draw scrutiny,” said our source. “If Comcast decides to impose its currently tested market trial plans on Comcast customers nationwide, the FCC will take a closer look. Under Title II, the agency is empowered to watch for attempts to circumvent Net Neutrality policies. Usage caps and charging additional fees to customers looking for an alternative to the cable television package will qualify, especially if Comcast continues to try to exempt itself.” Cable industry officials have also become aware of the buzz surrounding usage caps and growing regulator concern. Some reportedly discussed the possibility of FCC intervention behind closed doors at the recent cable industry conference in Chicago.

We already have bills to pay, don't you think I have you guys because I would like to come home from a busy day and enjoy watching a few shows on Netflix and I am a gamer, I use internet data. Point is, I would prefer such great internet provider should lower their standards as other companies who charge for ridiculousness.

Comcast is trying to purposefully stifle the composition from streaming Internet service providers, and the likes, by making them more expensive since they naturally require greater amount of data. Plus they are trying to fatting their greedy pockets from those suckers willing to pay more but not knowing how to stop them
