I think that you should ask for some money back too. That's too bad that you may have lost a job over the fact that your DSL is running too slow. I'd definitely let the company know about that fact. If you don't get any where with the first person ask for their supervisior until you find someone who will listen.

I emailed my ISP explaining the issue, and the fact that not only is this very poor business, but it cost me a job! I told them I want a refund for the difference between what I paid to have and what I'd actually gotten... which is considerably less...
According to the site that tested my DSL, mine is 68% less than it should be. So I suggested a 68% refund. LOL I told them there's no excuse for this since it's a simple matter of them testing each new hookup as it's done which takes about 2 minutes. It should be interesting to see what kind of response I get.

Well, they certainly got back to you pretty quickly. Now we'll see if they get your refund to you as quickly. I hope that you get a pretty sizeable refund back. Good luck!!
