They're horrible at customer service, bills are always wrong, and yet they know we need their product.<BR/><BR/>I was a telephone operator for two summers; my dad worked for NY Telephone. It was fun, really, and the money was excellent while I was in college.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12380165835261203465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968216.post-1132287665322607782005-11-17T20:21:00.000-08:002005-11-17T20:21:00.000-08:00I was just talking to Lloyd about this the other d...I was just talking to Lloyd about this the other day. We really need to re-evaluate our phone service. We have so many features that I don't use as well having a cell phone that I always keep on.. (even in my classroom, in case of emergencies) Cox is offereing phonce service and they just called us tonight about it. I asked the guy to get to the bottom line and to give me a monthly idea of the cost with caller id and call waiting and he said about $25 a month, I am sure not including all the additional fees and crap like that.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13806357337183052816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968216.post-1132241765187235182005-11-17T07:36:00.000-08:002005-11-17T07:36:00.000-08:00I hate being placed on call waiting.

I often find myself coming up with my own hold music because I hate sitting there in silence.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05744575738815184510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968216.post-1132213861789299242005-11-16T23:51:00.000-08:002005-11-16T23:51:00.000-08:00I absolutely hate call waiting.

If someone is talking to ME first and someone else beeps in, they should get a 'Hey I'm on the other line, call ya back'...boom, over in 10 seconds. But no. And then when they come back, they have to tell me who it was on the other line and what they wanted like I really give a shit. <BR/><BR/>I have many little pet peeves, what can I say. Bad telephone etiquette is a biggie.BeckEyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00119780316809151433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968216.post-1132211458471526182005-11-16T23:10:00.000-08:002005-11-16T23:10:00.000-08:00I've been afraid of merging my Sprint bills.

As for cable, I remember having each bill at about $130 and that's what pushed me to DirecTV. Happy I did even though I kept cable for internet, I'm still paying less for both together.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02770200801562699724noreply@blogger.com
