The lawsuit cites many examples of consumers who were quoted one price but charged
another. For example, a man from Blaine was quoted a base monthly rate of $39.97 for television
service, but was charged a base rate of $71.97 per month instead. A man from Columbia Heights was
quoted a base monthly rate of $14.95 for internet service, but was charged a base rate of $29.95 per
month instead.
