It just bothers me if a company offers really good deals to attract new customers, but does not offer the same deal to retain their existing customer base...
This is fairly typical of many business. Most customers stay with the company for a long time if they're happy with the service they get, so it's worth it for the company to offer incentives to join. Think loss leaders in a grocery store. If they offer the same incentive year after year to existing customers they could run at a loss. Of course, there are those who have no loyalty and hop from company to company each year. Speaking for myself, when it comes to renewal I go by how I've been treated and the quality of service (waf factor is important). And, yes, it there's a substantial difference in price I might be tempted but I would mention that to my current provider before I take any steps.
