Re: CIA in trouble with Bell!
said by Guspaz  :Funny... iStop did the exact same thing. They paid Bell based on what they thought Bell should charge them, rather than what Bell actually did charge them. And then Bell killed iStop for non-payment. iStop's official transfer ISP was Cybersurf, IIRC. And now Cybersurf is in exactly the same situation; they aren't paying their bills and are about to get canned. I was just about to point out the same thing in another thread on the subject: it sounds an awful lot like what Ralph whined about for years and did everything he could to avoid patying his bills (CRTC complaints, court injunctions, etc). The fact that it was CIA/3web/Cybersurf who bought a lot of his customers and are now in the same situation is a bit of delicious irony, don't you think?

Take my advice: switch ISPs before Bell cuts them off. Switching now is easy. Switching after Bell cuts them off can cause days or weeks without service.
From what I recall, when iStop tanked (I had switched off iStop a few months before that happened), other ISPs were given an extremely short period of time to transfer iStop customers before those customers were completely disconnected.
So, save yourself the trouble... abandon ship while you have the chance! |
