Raising prices is pretty much expected nowadays, but some companies do it an alarming rate. The latest example of this is from AT&T. As of yesterday (June 8th, 2014), AT&T raised their activation/upgrade fee from $36 to $40. It's not a big bump, but when you factor that activation fee in to a large customer base, the extra profit generated will be in the tens of millions.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with a company wanting to earn more profit and offset inflation, but sometimes it might be worth wondering if the cost increases are outpacing inflation an simply making it worse. Obviously, most of our members here on DroidForums are on Verizon, but we know there are quite a few of you who have switched to other carriers too. Sound off with your perspective.
