Clear’s Terms of Service – Dan – Clear WiMax and Clearwire Internet Review

Dan – Clear WiMax and Clearwire Internet Review

I went to Clear.com today to see if they had improved the coverage map, which they have. You can now get a Google overlay map with antenna coverage for your address.

The new map is cool. But if you zoom out, it just looks like someone went nuts with the spray paint feature of MSPaint. Coverage just happens to stop on the other side of the street from my place, but pick up again about a a block behind me. Explains why I’m constantly losing signal and can’t get more than one bar.

When the wind blows just right, I jump up to full bars. Strange, huh?

Anyway, at the bottom of the page, it lists part of their TOS.. This is what I noticed:

“Limited time offer. Taxes, equipment and other charges apply. ‘For Life’ service plan price guarantee conditioned on: (a) no change (e.g., in plan features; in stated residence location)”

So, according to this statement, Clear doesn’t want you moving while you’re in their auto-renewable 2yr contract, otherwise they can change your plan/rates.

This is absurd…

Clear Service Started Good, Now It Sucks – Michael from Chicago – Clear WiMax and Clearwire Internet Review

Michael from Chicago – Clear WiMax and Clearwire Internet Review

I initially decided to try Clear when they came to Chicago recently. The initial experience was good. I saw the 3-6 Mb/s speeds they claimed. Then apparently they started throttling the speeds so they could charge more. I haven’t seen anything better than 1Mb/s in weeks and that’s when it works at all.

My take on Clear is this, if you want it for true mobile use, via a USB adapter it’s really not a bad deal as long as they have good coverage in your area. But stay as far away from them for home service as you can.

I have RCN coming back out tomorrow to re-install my 20Mb/s connection for the same price I could get 3-4Mb/s from clear.

Signed,
More foggy than Clear
