I'm not arguing over having a cancellation fee-I'm just not agreeing
with their method as I thought it was a $150 or $200 early termination fee. I told them I'll call my credit card company when the charge hits as well. I've been in procurement long enough and negotiated enough deals that I like my odds of cutting it in half once I escalate this to a manager.

The guy I talked to couldn't comprehend that I had made the decision to
switch as he was trying to "help" by moving my service. I'm
tired of losing my signal when it rains.
