I have a situation with my Internet Service Provider, saying they can't increase my internet speed

[AbbathTheGrim]

I wanted to tell you guys about my situation and maybe hear if this situation makes sense to you.

- I am paying $60 for 4Mb of internet speed.

- My contract expired and I went to renew the thing and they told me I could make a new contract for 5Mb for $40.

- I didn't renew the contract then but went back another day to the ISP place to renew and they ASSURED me that:

1) 5Mb wouldn't reach my area

2) If I make a new contract with the new offer - 5Mb for $40 - (which is an improvement from what I have) I could possibly receive less internet speed meaning if I pay for a 5Mb internet speed I would end up receiving less than what I actually have right now.

Does this make sense to you guys?

Is this possible? I think they are just trying to bullshit me.

Do you think there's a chance they just want to keep me paying more money for less internet speed?

Thanks guys.
