My uncle calls up all his service providers at least twice a year and threatens to cancel just to see what they offer him. It's had a very positive ROI.

I'm surprised they haven't caught on yet, sounds like all it would take would be a note on his account, this is a fairly well known strategy.

Maybe he follows through with it if he doesn't like the offer. Systematic threats don't have to be empty.
