I find it interesting that there was no mention of the discontinuation of Advantage effective January 2006 (pending).

The ex-Tel Rep was in here 2 weeks ago ( now he is a rep for bloomlink) and said there was a bunch of rate hikes Tel was going to make this fall, guess this is the first of them!
That's negative billing and illegal up here in Canada, can't wait to get this note and refer it to the legal dept. Up here 90 written notice has to be given by any service for rate increases and so far I ain't seen any notification. Will have to call consumer and corporate affairs.
