About a year ago I got a message from Insight (before they switched to Comcast in my area) saying I'd been using too much bandwidth for the past few days saying if it continued they could limit my access. They cited some part of the contract where it mentions knowingly hurting service for other subscribers as justification for their actions.
So, I decided they blew their chance with this long-term customer. I had already dumped their TV in favor of Dish a decade ago, so I called up AT&T and asked what they could do by bundling our home phone, cell phone and internet. They saved me about $30/month which was close to what I was paying Insight. I dropped from 10MB down to 6MB down, but, honestly, I don't miss the extra speed.
If enough people would drop Comcast in favor of some other service, it might make them see the light of day.
