I think communication companies have the worst customer service around! We have had very good customer service with other companies though and when we do, we let them know that it is good.

You have to fight for what you want and there is nothing wrong with it. They're making money, you should receive the product they are offering. If not, no deal.living.boondockingmexicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17157433834193440923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-17532690480903031992015-05-12T18:11:13.792-04:002015-05-12T18:11:13.792-04:00You are one persistent guy, Kevin.

I do the same thing but I get really irritated at the time it takes to make them do what they say they will or not do what they shouldn't and how often I have to do it.
