AT&T has announced (http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,140184-c,isps/article.html) that it s raising its rates today on customers who have dial-up Internet access. They say that the price increase of over fifty percent is designed to keep their dial-up prices competitive with others in the market but it s been suggested that the move may be designed to get stubborn dial-up customers to switch to broadband. The increased rates are significantly higher than the unadvertised-but-available (http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Naked-ATT-DSL-Expands-89785) $10 DSL the company offers. Some readers say (http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r19352739-Dial-Up-Price-Increase) that the price rate is unfair due to the fact that DSL isn t offered by the company in all of the areas that are seeing the rate hike.
