    My lastest complaint about Centurylink is a new "Internet Cost Recovery Fee 0.99" that caught me…read moreby surprise. If warning was given the communication was not effective - probably buried in fine print somewhere. I emailed company and had the following reply: "John, please see below for an explanation of the Internet Cost Recovery Fee. As of May 10, 2013 CenturyLink began charging a Cost Recovery fee to our High Speed Internet users. The Internet Cost Recovery Fee is a monthly charge of $.99 that helps cover the costs associated with the building and maintaining of the Internet network." In other words the company wanted to increase the cost of my plan just to pay for the normal costs of running a business. First, a direct email ahead of time explaining the rate hike would have been appreciated. Second, it seems just like the company wanted to increase the fee of an agreed upon service but WANTED TO MAKE IT APPEAR to be a mandated fee like I have on my phone landline. My service has been only mediocre for the past two years. $40 per month (now $40.99) seems high for 3 MBS service. I tried to negotiate a better rate with no luck unless I wanted to bundle with unwanted services. I was promised two VISA reward cards when I signed up in 2011 as part of two promotions, but only received one. I tried to resolve it several times on the telephone with customer service reps and thought I was getting the problem resolved. I finally gave up. I should have documented the promotions better when I signed up, but did not expect the problems. My daughter in Des Moines had numerous problems paying her bill online and by telephone with unwarranted fees and mistakes. She finally decided to just drop her check in the company's dropbox downtown each month rather than pull her hair out with the online problems. She says she will NEVER use Centurylink again!

    From the owner: Qwest is now CenturyLink. Want the best home phone service, affordable long distance and high-speed…read moreinternet? Go with CenturyLink for the ultimate home technology. DSL lines get you online with fast, easy internet access.
