All you need to do is share your utility bills (after redacting sensitive information) and compare with neighbors. Then you can use this new information to renegotiate your rate. You're going to save a lot of money, it might make a difference in your life.

And this is certainly true in the Philadelphia market. This problem persists because of politics and because the companies and politicians don't give you the information you need to fix it. In the next local election, would you know who to vote for that supports telecom competition? And if you voted for them could you be sure they will deliver?
