What would you do in the event of a bait and switch by your provider?

I'm curious as to what people would have done differently from me in this situation.

Needless to say, this recently happened to me. The company I was with had been bought out and I was real happy with the change because it moved to a bigger and "better" company. I paid my $5 a month for my 25Gb of space and 256mb of ram and 100gb of bandwidth on a gigabit connection. Then, this last month they decided to change it up for me. $10 for the same specs but 15gb of storage. I immediately called them on it and tried to resolve it to their benefit, offering to take a cut in resources to keep my $5 price tag. they didn't want any of it, so I filed with the BBB (even though they are not accredited, it seemed like they made an effort to keep a clean record) and they have not responded as of yet, with 22 days of their 30 remaining to respond. They have an 'F' in the meantime. But I realized that I don't want to deal with anyone who would try to pull this on me. I already have a replacement host in mind and should be switching in the next few days!

The host was bought out when I got there and three months later merged with this company, but it started as one of Dan Fry's sites, I should note. It feels like there's some Fry ghost kicking me somehow. Like a little bit of him was left behind... Lmao
