EDITOR:

 

Jeers to cable companies for the way they treat their customers. Eastlink only charges me $175 a month for cable and a landline phone – no computer (internet). Bell Aliant wants your social insurance number or your driver’s licence number or your health card number. Not that long ago, the federal government promised with the help of the CRTC to lower the bills. Obviously nothing yet.

Eric McCarthy,

Summerside
