Companies like this are why phone call scams are as bad as they are, companies offload the call center to places like India so when some less tech savvy or venerable people get a call from an Indian sounding voice they actually think its the correct customer service crew calling offering deals or whatnot and get scammed.
Any company thats offshored call centres should pay towards the cost of trying to bring the scammers down.

Why can't people just do what you should do, when you install something NEVER select the standard install options, always select the custom option to see what crapware they are trying to install as well.
Long gone are the days where you were given the option to install the Google toolbar as an added option, if you don't do the install properly then you get all the crap for free.
And that isn't just for free/shareware, some paid for software has been known to side install 3rd party junk as well.
Exactly there is no competition out there on the market anyway, there are no incentives to get us to swap networks. If there is an incentive, by the time we are out of our billion year contracts the other networks stop them.
Years ago networks would offer is more data and minutes than we could use to get our custom, now they are charging the earth for stupidly small amounts of data.
