Re: Whine, Bitch, Moan, Complain.... said by Sarah:
It isn't that simple... I learned my lesson a while back so I only use that address sparingly, but many people use their e-mail address to register at web sites, sign up for newsletters, etc. etc. and it is a pain in the damn neck to switch them all. I use hotmail for most of that but I'm switching over to my own domain now... slowly but surely 
This comcast.net email change will be the fourth email change for me in the past year, (@home.com, attbroadband.com, attbi.com, comcast.net) so about a week ago I decided to buy a domain email address. It took me over 30 minutes to change all my internet account email addresses (newsletter accounts, online stores, bank accounts, credit card accounts, friends and family) that I could do myself and I had to contact customer service for 2 internet accounts because for some reason they won't let you change it yourself. Lucky for me the hold time wasn't to long. Then a few days later, an account I forgot to change popped in my head and I go and change that.
Who knows what other cable companies will buy us AT&T/Comcast users in 2003. At least with this email address, as long as I renew it every year it will not change.

I'm surprised you had to change your ATTBI email address so often. I signed up with attbi shortly after @home blew up, and my email address has been @attbi.com since then.

AT&T brought out Mediaone in Atlanta, and Comcast (@home users) in North Atlanta. AT&T moved all the former @home users in Atlanta to the Mediaone network (attbroadband.com). Then a few months later they wanted everyone to be on the same domain, so they moved us to attbi. That's why I had @attbroadband as one of my email addresses.

| Okay, that makes sense...
Here in Chicago, we just went from @Home to @attbi, mostly because Mediaone and Comcast does not exist in Chicago.
