Yup, they got me. Signed up for "price for life" fiber for $65/m, didn't take a screenshot so i have no proof. 2 years later, nothing change contract wise, but now my bill is $85/m and I can't fight it, again no proof. They were extremely careful to not have price for life branding on anything after you signed up, no email, no bill, no messages, nothing. Fuck Centurylink.

Now they're trying to get me to switch to Quantum Fiber which apparently is still Centurylink, and the carrot or stick they're using is the price for life rate at Quantum Fiber.. Why would I trust a price for life promo when you reneged on the last price for life promo, in less than a year?

Again, Fuck Centurylink.
