If I'm reading the 6pt print correctly with a magnifying glass, Bell has a rate increase effective Jan 2012.
Res Phone Service - $2.00 increase
If you have the whole package - home phone (land line), internet and TV which equals to an increase of 7$
and if your still on paper billings - add another buck.
My take: The CRTC should all be fired for allowing this crap. My Phone lines are a hundred years old; where's the "new Technology" - let me make a guess - most likely up there butts, cause there shovin it to us.
