Re: The reason why..

Is that because the problem isn't one of those "have you tried plugging it in?" kind of answerable oens?

I got on touch with their techs when assisting with a DSL install once. Man, their lack of knowledge about what the hell they're doing is astounding.

And what's worse is the fact that They assume You(and I) know even less than They do, As in nothing. Their phone system is really insulting and condescending too.

Actually, aol has the best with re-install the OS.

Deny, Deny, Deny, Deny, Deny, Deny, Deny, Place Blame, Appologize (or settle without accepting blame).

It is what is said by the recordings there. The recording assumes You are dumber than shinola and have no clue.

You realize Verizon outsourced their DSL CS to two or three different companies in different parts of the world. They had me go through 3 weeks of training. The first day out on floor had me feeling so sorry for the way customers were given the run around I quit.

@cable.rogers
maybe you shouldn't have quit, and stayed on to make a difference?

LOL, have you ever worked for a company that size? You don't make a real difference unless you are at the top (although they will tell you make a difference - usually equates to low pay).
