After going through all the tech BS and doing a speed test the tech tells me my speed is normal. I tell him it's low. It's suppose to be 1meg up and 6 meg down. He tells me no it's not. It's suppose to be 384k up and 4meg down, because that's what you're paying for. I thought I was paying for the faster service, because it was 1m/6m before. So I asked to be transfered to sales/billing. Come to find out, the wife called in and turned down my service in October and never told me. I then told the sales lady to turn my service back up to 1m/6m for the measly $9.00 a month. Obviosly the wife doesn't know (not that it's a big deal), but she soon will when she sees the bill.

What would you do from this point forward to return the favor? Should I cancel one of her credit cards or something? I'm kind of pissed that she did that without telling me.
at least she's doing dumb things to try and save money, my gf's always finding ways to spend the stuff. just got back from a meeting where i've set myself up with a shitload of work for the next 6 weeks that should bring in some good dollar and the first thing she says is 'you'll need a holiday after that, let's drop a few grand on spending a couple of dull as shit weeks at some crappy resort, surrounded by fat old people we have nothing in common with*'.

Give her the address to a "Bingo-night" going on so she can see her share of fat, old people she has nothing in common with while you're at home downloading games, amongst other things.
