Reminder:

All the above and most of the previous horror stories are TARIFFED
services. You can and should write them up and submit them to
your state PSC, with a cc: to the FCC.

I don't claim that this magically solves things, but in all things
political, a *paper* record never ever hurts. Some PSC's are far
better than others about reviewing same & acting. And while the
current FCC is unlikely to do much, come next election there may
be a different team on top....but your complaint is still on file.
