For some reason, this reminds me of:
said by Celebrity Jeopardy :Sean Connery: I've got to ask you about the Penis Mightier.
Alex Trebek: What? No. No, no, that is The Pen is Mightier.
Sean Connery: Gussy it up however you want, Trebek. What matters is does it work? Will it really mighty my penis, man?
Alex Trebek: It's not a product, Mr. Connery.
Sean Connery: Because I've ordered devices like that before - wasted a pretty penny, I don't mind telling you. And if The Penis Mightier works, I'll order a dozen.
Alex Trebek: It's not a Penis Mightier, Mr. Connery. There's no such thing!
Nicholas Cage: Wait, wait, wait.. are you selling Penis Mightiers?
Alex Trebek: No! No, I'm not.
Sean Connery: Well, you're sitting on a gold mine, Trebek! --

I am still holding out for a celebrity Jeopardy with Sean Connery, Burt Reynolds and Watson the Computer..... the jokes write themselves... why oh why can't they make it happen Stupid actors with stupid schedules.... |

Using magicjack plus without issue. Will miss the 911 service (which is bulletproof), but other than that, you can't beat $0/month unlimited NA for the first year. (hardware was $55 on sale). |

I'm sure Norm MacDonald and Darrell Hammond are free, but getting Will Ferrell back to do Trebek might be the toughest part...
Although you're right, the jokes do write themselves .
Back On Topic, I guess I'm glad I got TSI POTS...but I was a net-new subscriber, I didn't come from Bell.
EDIT: to the TSI Peeps, is it possible for me to change my phone number? I've run into the unfortunate incident where I've received a phone number from a deceased person...telling the CBC to do their homework and check on whether or not a person is alive or not...doesn't put any faith in the CBC...but that's another topic for another day.
If its possible if someone could let me know via PM, if Not...I'll just have to figure something out because its getting very annoying. |

That actually won't work. If the number is a native Bell number, it doesn't matter where it is coming from (Cable, VoIP, etc.), it still counts against the wholesale customer's maximums. Presumably, this is because Bell is too lazy to get their programmers to sift out the most recent carrier a number was ported from, rather than the original number owner.
Since the Wholesale POTS product is not tariffed, Bell can impose whatever commercial terms the wholesale customer agrees to - as unreasonable as they may be.

| Marc/TSI -- I'd really love to port over both my landline and DSL business from Bell. Happy to use a waiting list, or the "handball" method. Suggestions for triggering either option would be gratefully received. |

| reply to HopingHoping
I have Bell home phone and Teksavvy DSL on the same line.
From what I have read, I cannot switch to Teksavvy. If I don't keep my current home phone number, would I be able to get Teksavvy home phone service? |

Hello,
At the moment there is no further word on this but I will ask around tomorrow and see if there might be any ETA or possible options (such as a waiting list)
In the meantime you mention phone and DSL. You're going to want to move the DSL service first (and could do so now if you'd like) to avoid any downtime. Before the stop sell on phone if we were to port a number over and order DSL at the same time the DSL would be delayed by approximately 5 business days. However if the DSL was brought over first, then the phone could be ported which shouldn't have any downtime.
Thank you,
Keith

So how old will I be before the POTS offering comes back? How about allowing current customers an inside track? The limits can't be so tight that you can't set a monthly quota. Heck, even if you have to have reps make notes and post it on a whiteboard at the end of the day it would be better than nothing. This is lost revenue, I'm surprised you guys haven't figured out a solution yet.

| I've asked around for any further possible update this morning. What I've been advised is that we haven’t forgotten about this services and we are still putting things together to bring back this service to some capacity.
As soon as we have further update we'll let you guys know here.

Hope that TSI can start taking orders again...
As a DSL user, using a VoIP isn't saving me much money as the savings will go towards paying the DryLoop fee.
I would rather pay a cup of starbucks coffee price worth of money and get a stable landline.
Too bad cable service just suck in my area... DSL connection is just too consistant for me to give up  |
