When people ask me for a referral, I send them the official Lingo Member invitation, which explains that both parties get $25 each.
I certainly am not trying to "shove" the Lingo service down anybody's throat. I am willing and able to help with any technical questions, including people that have not used me as a referral. I have done it for a long time now, never charged anyone a single cent.
Anyways, I have read your posting and it does not seem to differ from mine. You must be a happy Lingo camper after all!

Thanks,

I didn't read every last word of lengthy update after update, but I did see several plugs telling people if they wanted in on the $25 credit for using a referral from an existing customer to email him. What he never mentioned anywhere near the numerous plugs was that he also gets a $25 credit for every new customer that signs up and remains a customer for three months. If he did mention it, my apologies (It must have been buried in a sea of repetitive remarks and I missed it).

I've been a Lingo customer for about three years now. My ATA device is not made by Toshiba (No clue where he got that tripe). According to FCC laws any number can be transferred to any new service (Number Portability), so the statement about having to get a new number if you get a new ATA device is pretty laughable. They claim that there's no need to upgrade your adapter because all of their adapters are of equal quality. That doesn't change the fact that equipment has to be replaced from time to time because it eventually wears out... or gets hit in a lightning storm.

The sound quality is not always crystal clear for me and I'm quite certain it has nothing to do with my ISP, especially since Lingo's tech support reps have acknowledged the issue. In the instances I have had trouble Lingo's tech support has been decent and sorted the issues in a timely manner.

I'll post a proper review regarding my experiences with Lingo. I just wanted to mention that this guy is only trying to shove Lingo down your throats so people will contact him for the referral email so he can get his $25 per new account. If it's working for him, spiffy. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18662863 Fri, 13 Jul 2007 00:57:06 EDT
