Not be be deliberately whiny, but the "enhanced" speed I get for free at CYs as a platinum is only slightly above the free speed and barely better than nothing. Sometimes it won't even hold in a simple VPN connection to the corporate office. I can get work done, but it's often a struggle and on some occasions I have to resort to my cell phone as a hotspot. I can deal with it but if I actually paid the $4.95/day for the "enhanced" speed I'd be pretty pissed off.
