Internet Company Refuses To Cancel Service, Rural Customer Proves Them Wrong


Dealing with an internet service provider is on of the most universally disliked experiences there is. Literally the best outcome is that you get sort-of reliable service for a price that's slightly more expensive than you expected. And cancelling service is almost always a nightmare.
