Bundles

Bundles are the devil. These all in one inclusive packages that promise discounts. It's annoying for several reasons:

1. The company is trying to convert your services and thus make you choose an allegiance. I don't like that kind of pressure. Not to mention feeling like I'm getting pushed around by a big company.

2. By changing what the packaging of your services does, it allows them to add hidden fees and the such. Just recently Hydro changed their payment of to times of usage. When you don't use electricity in peek times it'll be cheaper. That's what they say, the kicker, all of it is more expensive then the prices were before. Therefore even if you change your usage habits to be more environmentally friendly it doesn't help your bill. That said, if you continue using the same way you always have you'll be paying a lot more.
