How to count as a sincere "speed increase and decrease fee"

In the past May 15th, the three major telecom operators announced a new plan for "speeding up fees and charges." The faster-moving Beijing Unicom has announced that it will start the fourth free broadband speed start on the 17th.

The “speeding up and fee reduction” under the supervision of the Prime Minister twice should have stimulated the nerves of many people in the country. When the cost reduction is really coming, although the operator has “the biggest tariff adjustment ever,” the “lowest price ever”. "The so-called sincerity, but according to surveys, there are still a large number of Internet users do not buy it, Tucao this is "replacement of drugs," and "sincerity is obviously insufficient."

In fact, from the perspective of the operator’s specific plans, it is actually visible to reduce fees and charges. After all, the data will not be deceptive, but the trough is not out of nothing. This is despite the “ideal and reality gap”. "It was caused, but "night traffic" was really disappointing. Objectively speaking, standing on either side has its own statement. Is it completely in line with what netizens expect, or is it the best "speed up fee"?

Call for speed and cost reduction. It should not be an outbreak of long-term accumulation of rampage, but should be a return to common sense. This is not a false hypocrisy. One common sense that must be clarified is that, even if it does not take into consideration the public welfare that telecommunication services should have, from the actual relevance of the public, this is primarily based on a market contract. Consumer relations. Then, whether it is from the protection of consumer rights or the rules governing the operation of a market economy, there should be two basic facts: First, consumers and telecommunications service providers are in a reciprocal relationship; second, providers are fair and open. "Production" information services under a competitive market environment.


From this point on, we will look at the reality of the telecommunications service market. The prime minister criticized the "broadband is not wide, the cost is high, and the traffic charge is expensive." Projected to reality is the following: First, the bandwidth vacancy, which is mainly manifested by the carrier's promised bandwidth speed, and the actual bandwidth used by the user. There is a clear gap in the speed of the network; second, the overbearing traffic is cleared, and realistically stated that based on technical issues, it is necessary to achieve a stable bandwidth speed throughout the entire period, which may be an insurmountable obstacle. However, the exclusive use of sharing is exclusive. Caused by the virtual standard of bandwidth, this is obviously not an objective technical problem. It is based on false propaganda or exaggeration of interest calculations. Overbearing “traffic clearing” is written into the consumer agreement of both parties, but from the very beginning, The consumption agreement is dominated by operators, and consumers can only passively sign and accept. In this case, its rationality is doubtful. This is also a direct violation of consumer rights.

Regarding the issue of high costs, the overall level of charges is high. Although the level of tariffs has been lowered in recent years, it is undoubted that whether the reference is to the consumer's income level or from a horizontal international level, the level of domestic telecommunication service charges is high. Is it really impossible to drop it? One fact that can be used to corroborate is that according to the plans announced by the three major operators, it is not difficult to find a clear reduction. From this positive news, it is not difficult for us to The level of charges apparently has an imaginary component. Why should we not wait until the Prime Minister supervises and manages to quickly and generously lower? We must know how to charge directly to the immediate interests of consumers. An irreversible rule is that it should only be linked to markets such as production costs and market demand. Elements.

In this regard, speed-up and fee-down basically means that only the role of the telecommunications service market is clarified, so that telecom operators, as producers, adhere to market regulations and realize the return of consumer rights in openness and equality. It should be reflected in the details of visible consumer rights, such as the speed of the Internet, the perceived enjoyment, the read-ahead accounts, and the right to speak in real terms. In this way, it is sincere to "speed up and reduce fees." ".
