Last year I used to get email notices for someone elses Uverse monthly bill. I tried multiple times to contact UVerse and tell them I was getting someone elses bill via email. I called them, emailed them, went to their website and sent in multiple complaints. FINALLY, I had enough and decided to log into that UVerse account (since it was being sent TO ME) and change the email notification email to (or something to that affect), and I changed the users last name to "Idiot". I NEVER got another email notice from UVerse for someone elses bill again! -- Maggie |

Back when junk faxes were all too common, many of them had a number you could call to opt out (why should you have to? Would they actually opt you out? Your number certainly wouldn't be removed from the master list sold to anyone who wanted it). Then I noticed the phone tree included an option not just to opt out, but to add fax numbers to receive future junk faxes. So I opted in the FCC fax number and the state Attorney General's fax number. |

Great idea. yeah, but it didn't take long for that choice on the phone menu to be removed. But I got the last laugh for a while. |
