I don't know how other countries are, but the "industry standard" for any service doesn't compensate you for downtime. Yea, maybe electric and water was a bad example. Internet/Phone/Cable still hold up though, those are services. You are rarely, if ever, compensated for any kind of downtime.
While I can't speak on Electric considering that has 100% up time in most places, I have had multiple occasions where my internet / cable or my water went out. For Internet / Cable, I have never been compensated even though I've had times of up to 2 days where I don't have any cable access (due to problems with wiring in the neighborhood, or something like that). My apartment complex I live in now frequently shuts down the water main (like twice a month) for "repairs" and we've never seen a discount on our bill because of it.

I like the irony that people seem to hate doing dailies, but on the blizz forums there are dozens of people complaining about not being able to do them. Can't win Blizz, can't win.
Every single time WoWs maintenance is extended... hundreds of QQ posts come up. Not ONCE have I ever seen a "Thank you" post when the maintenance is 2 hours shorter than normal, or if they simply do restarts instead of an actual maintenance. And the funny thing is, both of these occur substantially more than Extended maintenance does.
Funny thing.
Fanboy (Fanboi): A Term used when someone disagrees with you on a subject, person, place, thing, company, or product line and they are not smart enough to debate your counterpoint back so they resort to childish name calling in hopes of shaming you into silence and thus them winning through dominance.
When i was on cable modem i disco'd a lot, after a few calls a day i got comped for that day with an apology. Its the industry standard for sub based products. Your paying for a service, if that service isnt preformed you are comped. Its not really someone can debate since its common sense.
Electric and water are usage based.
if your internet went down every week or hours you'd bitch or you have no spine
my internet goes down about 5-7 hours per month and when it's gone, i notice it.
you shouldn't notice that you're NOT getting what you pay for or it's bad business. they could be more efficient. problem is they don't have a reason to give a fuck.
Except its not weekly. There have been months with out a single maintenance day. Just a restart here or there.WoW: 5-8 hours every week.
