quibbleworthy

had just rang the cable service provider (CSP) about my monthly payment when the voice machine thingy blurted:

...for more information on the change in sports subscription wotsit, please press 1...

so i asked the utterly polite "customer care" lad what it was all about, only to be told that said package - w.e.f next month - is upped nearly 100%. ie. from *WID8.00 to WID15.75.

WT effin' F? after the right massive quibbling between the CSP and the workplace (TWP) about two months ago, i crossed me fingers hoping for a complete blackout of the english premiership throughout.

and when i received subsequent billing's afterwhich - for the months of september and october - there was no mention of price increase whatsoever, i smelled a rat.

to only gotten a near heart attack when told about it. twice the current amount i'm paying. and i'm very sure the red mist would descend upon alot of subscriber's all over the wee isle.

which is a greater loss to the CSP, can't say for sure if it would be a mighty loss though. but not to TWP certainly.

i tell ye, it's daylight robbery. and the main culprit is TWP.
