Not always. Some services I use have increased their prices dramatically, but I'm still on the old grandfathered plans.

I do that for my users as well. If I increase the pricing for the paid subscription, all existing paid users will always keep the old, cheaper plan.

quite literally, T Mobile will introduce a new price tier iirc next week where bundling any postpaid voice line with home Internet will mean your home Internet will be USD 25 a month, down from USD 50 a month. Existing home Internet customers are excepted.

I am not a big fan of cable but I have since signed up for time warner spectrum for Internet just in case...

These companies assume we are too lazy, misinformed, and stupid to do anything.

Edit: charter, not time warner (?)

Correctly assume *

HN is not representative of the general population, a lot of people don’t bother to switch every provider every year, especially when they have obnoxious clauses like “this will renew in 12 months at 500% the price unless you send a signed letter at least 90 days in advance.“ Yes, probably illegal, still doesn’t stop them from trying.

Even I, attentive as I am, still get fleeced every once in a while.
