They didn't give you shit. You paid them for a service. Corps are not your friends.

I think you misunderstood their meaning with that.

Thanks, yes they did misunderstand. If 57 is the "real" price I'm effectively paying for 1 year of service and getting 2. Also there are no penalties for cancellation after the first year, so if i wanted to go through the trouble of finding another ISP, I could walk away then.
