Households now have no access to the internet, and broadband is just needed for household life. In many households, broadband is used to choose a combination of mobile cards and broadband. At the time of the presentation, the operator was particularly well-paid, saying that the mobile phone package delivered broadband without having to pay for broadband alone, and that many people did so directly after hearing。
The reality, however, is that after a large number of families have used such bundles of food, a lot of money is spent every month. Many pay their bills on time every month, never look at the bill carefully, and do not understand the frame in the package. It was only when they wanted to change their food set and remove the machine that they found themselves in the trap of a contract, costing hundreds or thousands more。
Today, let's be clear about the real problem of placing broadband on our cell phones. Not exaggerating, not discrediting, but simply telling the truth of what happens to ordinary people, and checking whether they have spent more than they can on their own meals。
I. The so-called “free delivery of broadband” is not really free
Many people heard “free broadband for mobile cards”, and the first reaction was to get cheap. One thing needs to be clear here: broadband has never really been free, just to spread the cost of broadband to monthly cell phone rents。
Take a realistic example. A single household broadband operation, costing about $5,600 a year, has been converted to over $50 per month. If you make a blender, the cell phone rents $129 a month and says "broadband." on the face of broadband, there is no extra charge, and in fact the monthly rent of $129 already includes the cost of broadband。
If you use very little mobile traffic, you don't have enough call minutes, and you take up a high monthly rent every month, essentially for broadband. Some families, with only older persons in their homes, cannot run out of mobile phone traffic, but, in order to maintain the normal use of broadband, must always carry a high-priced mobile phone package, which is a real extra cost。
There are also a number of operators who, while doing so, will focus only on the benefits of “broadband delivery” and will be more vague about the duration of contracts and the limits of the package. Many people have completed their business without knowing how long they have signed a contract. They only know how long they will have to pay for their calls every month。
Ii. The contract's locked, it's impossible to drop the package
This is one of the most common issues in the integration package. Many families start out with high-speed broadband, so they have high-end integration packages. After a year or two, the situation in the home changed, and the family changed their mobile cards, which were heavily inactive, in an attempt to reduce the food package and save monthly expenses。
At this point in time, there are obstacles: during the term of the contract, most integration packages are allowed to upgrade only upwards and no drops. As long as the contract is not due, either the client's service or the office will advise that a low-cost package cannot be processed。
Even if you have half of your monthly traffic, which is almost non-existent, you have to wait until the end of the contract at the original high monthly rent. A large number of families, for two to three years in a row, pay hundreds of extra telephone bills each month and are unaware of it。
In another case, some users thought that broadband could continue to be used as a way to downput their mobile phone packages. The practical rule is that the broadband discount for the integration of the package is the binding of the cell phone set. If a cell phone set is down and the preferences for broadband directly fail, broadband will be charged at a high price for a single broadband. In the end, the monthly rental of mobile phones was saved, and broadband costs increased significantly, and the total cost was more, which was unknown to many。
Iii. Cell phones are being cut off, broadband is being cut off and life is being affected
Pure broadband, which is handled separately, is an independent account. Even if your cell phone card is out of charge, there will be no impact on the home network. However, mobile phone broadband bundled blended blended packages, mobile master cards are the main chargers for the entire business, and broadband and mobile phone accounts are charged together。
Once mobile cards are closed, broadband is suspended directly. All the wifi and tv iptvs in the house are not working. In the case of internet classes and home-based work for children, the network is suddenly cut off, which can cause serious problems。
There are many families whose houses are vacant for short periods of time and who work outside the home and who want to stop their mobile card numbers in order to think that broadband can still be used. As a result, broadband was cut off directly after the shutdown. In order to restore the network, it is necessary not only to pay back the arrears, but also to benefit from the previous package, and not necessarily to be able to retain it, resulting in additional expenditures in vain。
Many other people have encountered broadband in their homes, which did not expire, suddenly cut off the net, repeated routers, and finally found that the balance of mobile cards was insufficient. This makes it difficult for many ordinary users to think of the root causes of the problem first。
Iv. Bycards, value-added operations, silent automatic deductions due free of charge
In the case of integration packages, side cards, iptv tv boxes, cloud dishes, video membership, etc. Are often given. The clerk will explain that the experience was free of charge in the previous months. A lot of people listen and feel like they're getting more benefits, and then they just do it, and then they leave it behind。
After a free experience period, these operations are automatically converted to fees. Ten or twenty dollars per month is quietly added to the bill. Ordinary people don't look closely at the bill, they don't find it. Accumulated over the course of the year is hundreds of additional expenditures。
There are many real cases online. Users had broadbanded and a pass had been given, and operators had verbally stated that they would not deduct money. As a result, after the expiration of the contract, the sub-card was automatically charged, and the user had never used the card, but had incurred hundreds of dollars in arrears and had received reminders, which were very passive。
There are also families, video members with their own overhead boxes, free of charge for the first two months and automatic deductions after expiry. Old people in the family usually watch television and do not pay their bills and pay the money for nothing every month。
V. Continues, supplements universally, supposed universally
The vast majority of integrated packages are contracted for two or three years. Many people think that when the contract expires, the package automatically becomes free and can be changed. In practice, however, the system automatically continues its original contract after the expiration of many packages and does not initiate changes, which would be equivalent to a two-year re-locking period。
Many families, after the expiration of their contracts, do not receive a clear reminder that they continue to pay according to the original package. It was not until later that it was attempted to decommission and re-port the network that it found itself in the new contract period. If an early settlement is to be made, a default payment of several hundred dollars or thousands more is required。
There are other users who have failed in their attempts to network. This is due to the fact that broadband, iptv, by-card etc. Are also not processed. All i wanted to do was transfer the cell phone, ignore the broadband contract, and then the request was rejected, and broadband operations continued to be expensive。
Vi. Untiement is not a simple stoppage, and procedures are in place
A lot of people think that without broadband, they'll just shut down the card. But integration packages can't be handled so easily. Cellular card shutdown does not amount to write-off of broadband operations. If you do not go to the office to do the dismantling in full, the broadband business will remain in your name and will continue to incur costs, even arrears, affecting personal correspondence records。
In order to completely end the bundling, he/she is required to carry his/her identity card and go to the below-line office for the complete dismantling of the machine. The equipment, namely, barecats, roof boxes and remote controls, is also to be returned. In the event of loss of equipment, compensation is also required. Many people who were in trouble at the office were left alone, which resulted in unnecessary disputes over arrears。
Vii. How to avoid pits in the face of bundling
This is not to say that the integration package is completely useless. There is a certain value in combining meals for multi-mouth homes where several people share mobile cards, traffic, and at the same time have to watch television with broadband. The point is to understand the rules and not to be confused。
First, there are three things that must be asked: how many years is the contract? What is the actual total cost per month? What is the amount of pre-contract default money that can be reduced during the contract period. All verbal commitments must be confirmed by the delivery of a text message from the client service, keep a record and not just listen to oral presentations by the clerk。
Second, a few minutes per month to see the bill of charges. Emphasis is placed on additional value-added operations, by-card deductions. If a needless business is discovered, the operator can be called directly and apply for withdrawal. Sending a text message to the operator's number in the form of a quick search and de-ordering of value-added operations。
Thirdly, prior to the expiration of the contract, the client service was contacted to confirm the contract status. Do not default automatic renewals. If you do not want to continue with the package, make changes early or take down the machine。
Fourth, in cases where the contract period does not allow for the reduction of the package and is unreasonably restricted, the operator's service may be called to reflect. If communication is not resolved, a complaint can be made through the ministry of industry and communications'sub-procedures of 12300 to defend their legitimate interests。
Fifthly, with a small family population and sufficient mobile phone traffic per se, a comparison of pure broadband packages can be considered. Separate broadband has no cell phone contract binding, is more liberal and does not have to be held hostage by a mobile phone set。
Viii. How do you choose the two packages
What kind of family is a blended package? There are several people in the family who need a mobile phone card, who can share traffic calls, as well as broadband and television iptv, who can accept fixed contract terms and have a full monthly call budget, and it is cost-effective for the family to handle the integration package。
If only one or two people in the family use a mobile phone, the mobile phone traffic itself is sufficient, it is rarely used as a call minute in the package, and simply requires home access to the internet, then pure broadband is more appropriate. No cell phones, no contractual shackles, no switchovers, no impact on the home network due to the cost of mobile phones。
There's no perfect set, just a set for yourself. Many suffer from a loss, not because the package itself was bad, but because it was processed without understanding the contract and afterward without regular reconciliation。
Many people live and earn hard money, and every penny is hard. The pay-off broadband is a fixed monthly cost, accumulated over a period of time, leaving a large annual gap. Many families pay more than they want, not by the operators, but by information asymmetries and lack of knowledge about the rules governing the food package。
We cannot simply deny the integration package, which has indeed facilitated some families. But as an ordinary consumer, we have to be conscious, to see the contract, to see the bill, to hold our money bags。
