AT&T, Verizon, Frontier, and Lumen all get hammered after lead-cable reports.

AT&T’s stock price hit a 29-year low on Friday and continued to sink today as investors fled telecom stocks on reports that cleanups of lead-covered telephone cables could cost the industry tens of billions of dollars.

    This seems impossible, they’re charging me 10k/mo for 5 T1 circuits.

        We don’t need the bandwidth. We need the physical PRI circuits for our legacy PBX. We will be migrated off by September for sure. The price is more than tripled after the circuits were deregulated.

      They’re gonna charge you whatever you’re willing to pay. They don’t run T1 anymore and are just squeezing the blood from the stone before they rip it down and toss it out.
