I do this with Internet/cable companies. Whenever I move I get the promotional price for a year. Then after a year I call them up and complain about the price increase and they extend the promotion. I’ve done that every year for the past 15 years.
I tried it and they didn’t care. So I cancelled switched providers until their promotion ran out then switched back.
I think the Sales executives want this. They get bonuses for new customers. If no one switched they wouldn’t get their bonus. So as long as the competitors are getting customers to leave, they try to get their own customers to leave too.

Most places I’ve been, the company has a monopoly and my only other choice I satellite, which often sucks.
That’s probably why the fiber rollout has been so slow too.
Everywhere I’ve been that has offered fiber had multiple fiber providers, with shocker, all the same low price and no hidden fees.
