Otelco BMTC Over priced- "corporate blackmail," lazy employees Arab Alabama

 The first item of interest is telephone and Internet fees. I don't use their phone service anymore as it jumped from $20 per month to $46. More than double. Their Internet is expensive and slow. $50 “installation” is a joke- how about just dropping off the power supply? And a real chepie at that. The monthly fees are hard to calculate. From $50 upwards. Expect service outs at times. They claim 100 mps- well, that may be but where? Classic rural service- government mandated monopoly. Good luck finding an alternate provider. Mindspring has an office with more than 200 employees. Otelco is the only provider nearby. IF there was an alternative, Otelco would disappear.
