Yours, mine, everyone's. This likely includes phone numbers, full names, signature numbers, addresses, call logs, previous billings, and credit card information. It's an acquisition without quite being an acquisition. Exactly the sort of crash and burn fire sale that was our worst-case expectation as SR began its long dive down. I have no idea if it's legal. But they misspelled their own name in their first mailing. I think that says enough. -- B -- In a realm outside causality and function

jaydub2 join:2007-07-16 Arlington, VA	reply to B Notice how the info is different on GoDaddy's WHOIS service and the one on Network Solutions? One points to Overcom, and the other points to USA Telephone, owned by United Systems Access. Yahoo! Biz! shows something: »biz.yahoo.com/ic/107/107129.html What freaks me out is that the Teleblend(er) site says absolutely NOTHING about who's running the show there, other than proudly stating "We are your broadband phone company." It's so weird... -- »thecrustysysarch.blogspot.com/

Scurvyguy @optonline.net	Read the FAQ on Teleblend's site. They keep repeating over and over, "We are not Sunrocket". What legit company has a site that spends so much effort explicitly saying they are not someone else? It all looks like it was written in barely legit English in one sitting. I mean, what kind of FAQ is this: "Who are you? We are Teleblend, your broadband telephone company." Oh, that answers my question, thanks. or this one - "What are your prices for international service? We will honor the current Sunrocket international rates for the time being.." So they are not Sunrocket (as they've made abundantly clear), but at the same time don't have their own list of international rates of their own? They're just duplicating what Sunrocket had? Huh? The FAQ exhort you five times to "Simply go to our website www.myteleblend.net , sign up..". If the question was "how do I sign up", that might count as a FAQ answer - but five times? And the support page has one number, and an "info@...." email address? This stinks a mile away. =Scurvyguy

I was hoping to wait and see if verizon was successful in porting next tuesday, but according to an email on another post, all sunrocket customers who do not sign up by sunday midnight will be permanently disconnected.
