Moved into this apartment and only had 1mbps internet, which is… bad. good luck watching anything.

Called yesterday and they said they could only pump it up to 7.5mbps due to the building’s wiring, which is a tiny bit better and I suppose I’ll take what I can get for now just so I can actually use the internet.

A few hours later, I’m now sitting on a whopping 768kbps plan at $40 a month, which is absolute bullshit! WHAT!? I didn’t even know you could get internet that slow! What happened?? I might as well go back to dial-up. And $40! Is that my idiot tax for trusting them?

Just give me decent internet, please, I beg you 😫

#ok but 768kbps at $40 a month is practically stealing from people right? I’m not alone in thinking that right?#I’m basically crawling in an unloadable hell scape and paying them $40 for the privilege #should say that the 1mbps was actually FREE bc of a government subsidy or something like that #so I’m going half that slow ass speed at a ridiculous mark-up #AT&T fucking sucks #they said ‘restart your router at 2pm and your new plan should be in effect’ and I did and nothing has loaded since #gonna try and fix this tomorrow I hope #I’ve just been using my phone’s data for internet these past few weeks #which thankfully is unlimited and pretty zippy #but I want real home wifi so I can stream shows and stuff #I know I can make a hotspot with my phone but that’s so many extra steps when they could just I dunno GIVE ME FUCKING DECENT INTERNET #I’m sorry I know this is boring to 99% of my mutuals #I’ve been sick today and my head hurts and I’m grumpy #and I’ve been extra grumpy knowing I have a good reason to be grumpy (i.e. this internet)#I’m full of righteous grumpiness #and not much else… I need to eat #you can ignore this #text
