Sad but has to laugh

Laughs my head off.....that is a good email. This would be a type of email to send to AOL. I have heard bad stories about NTL, so the email this person wrote comes as no suprise.

I have Sprint and is currently running into DSL problems and trying to get Sprint to figure out whats going on. My DSL connection keeps on going and Sprint telling me there is no problem. It can be quite fustrating to say the least.

Those Brtis are so witty

WOW, I hope this guy doesn't have any high powered rifles at hand. He is sure to be on the roof of NTL picking off those wonderful customer support folks. Oh wait, bloody rifle massacres are reserved for Americans only!

More patience than most

He gave them more chances than I would have. Hopefully his actions stay on paper.

OOPS!!!!


You are a great writer of truisms and facts.
Only one point of disagreement.
Your Fatal Flaw is you assume that they have both the ability to read let alone the intelligence to comprehend this letter.

But a great Letter and a resounding cheer for your efforts.

Flashback to a former ISP

As I was reading this, I recall how frustrated I was dealing with Telocity after Northpoint went belly up. I can't remember how many times I was promised I'd be connected "soon" over a 9 month period. Actually I switched to another DSL provider after about 5 months, the rest were spent trying to convince them I wasn't interested in the service anymore and trying to return the stupid modem. I still have the damn thing, though I guess it's safe to throw out now that they are long gone ( as Telocity ).

My 2 cents... Hmmm, that's over a $1.50 now, my opinion is earning interest.

Fly on the wall & a follow-up?

All I can say about that letter is that it's Legendary. Oh, how I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when that letter was put in front of a BT suit while he played with his testicles. I also wonder, what was their follow-up, if any? By chance if the letter-writer sees this, or someone from BT, please let us know what happened, if anything. Now to save that letter in my Text Stuff folder on the slave drive....

Re: Fly on the wall & a follow-up?

The letter was pretty good, but the references to legendary and Shakespeare are a bit of a stretch...
