You still would have ordered the service when you did, even if they put the disconnect fee in big bold print. And if they did not charge the disconnect fee, they simply would have frontloaded the 'install fee' to be higher.
People are demaning the lowest price possible nowadays, so companies are simply add fees to their products on the back end. Is this a company issue, or a consumer issue? Personally, I always take the side of the big guy. In this case, a multi billion dollar corporation.
