The ad and the linked terms don’t say anything about the deal being available only for new customers and accounts. It’s the lack of transparency that really gets me.

    there are 2 solid low-cost mobile carriers here in sweden, and i literally do this with them. Just hop back and forth every 4 months and you get some sort of deal every single time.

    It’s profoundly stupid and makes me hate modern society just that little bit more.

      similar with energy retailers in aus

      the government even plays into it by having a web tool to compare energy plans, and roughly once per year my state pays people $100 just to compare deals (and then i usually spend 5min to switch providers and save ~$500/y)
