If the investigation uncovers anything, it wouldn’ t be the first time a telecom provider got into

Even when they stay on the right side of the law, Internet providers arouse customers’ anger over bandwidth speed and cost. Just this week, an investigation found that media and telecom giant Comcast is the most【C12】______provider. Over 10 months, Comcast received nearly 12, 000 customer complaints, many【C13】______to its monthly data cap and overage charges.
