Learning what happened to the old guy below, I'm glad I didn't try to stop him. ______________ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...061802995.html Vienna Man Dies After Bid to Stop Verizon Van Unhappy Customer, 79, Grabbed Wheel, Fell in Driveway A 79-year-old Vienna man who was fed up with his Verizon service died after trying to stop a technician's van from pulling out of his driveway.

The company has lost all interest in customer service. Heck they even have a company policy to never trim a tree, even if its enangering their main phone lines. They wait till the tree takes out the line and bills the property owner for bthe damage.......... They fail to realize the most common time for lines to come down is a storm, so storm recovery will be worse in the future I had to call verizon every business day for 3 weeks and esclate the problem to the presidents office to get a noisey router replaced in our central office. tried to cancel, they said your under contract. yeah sure hide behind a contract so they can provide sucky service |
