| The rude billing department doesn't surprise me
So, was the person from billing who contacted you named Mack? He was the guy that I had to deal with when they had billing problems (don't bill me for 4 months, then expect $800 all at once? And then yell at me when I try and arrange a payment plan?)
Apparently, however, Crosslink doesn't care enough about their customers to fire, or even discipline, this guy. I actually went down there and spoke to one of their directors, and he didn't have anything useful today. I cancelled my connection back in January (at the end of my one year contract), and they're still trying to charge me $600 for Feb-Apr

|  |  | Anon | ISDN in Warrenton / Obligation to Pay Bills ISDN Access in Warrenton The ISDN user in Warrenton was able to reach the site they use the most on the West Coast faster using Earthlink because the site was also on the Earthlink network. According to trace routes there were fewer hops to that site using the Earthlink network. While the access speed to neutral third party sites was about the same or in some cases faster, Earthlink was able to route traffic to the site the customer uses the most on it's network on the West Coast faster. The CrossLink support department was not able to resolve a problem, because the ISDN connection operated as it should and it was the time to get cross country to the site on the Earthlink network which was the difference. Having determined this to be the difference, CrossLink Sales recommended the subscriber work with Earthlink and that no there be no charge.
Prompt Payment for Services Rendered CrossLink incurrs operating expenses which are paid every month, even when a DSL customer does NOT pay their bill in a timely manner. CrossLink's vendors are paid when an invoice is rendered. CrossLink expects the same prompt payment from their DSL subscribers, who are fully aware of their obligation to pay for the service prior to ordering. While not very popular, Mr. Stone's department is responsible for collecting from those few customers that do not live up to their obligations. | |

| give it up.... Hey guys, give it up. There is no "Mr Stone". He is a fictional character. To verify this, simply have an attorney call and insist he speak to such person, "Mr. (Mack) Stone". Such a request can not be satisfied. Bottom line.
Issue now closed. | |

| The Future of ISP Failures Not only did they waste my time with trying to qualify my line with Verizon but they actually tried to bill me for DSL that was never activated ...for 6 months!
They have essentially turned their billing department into a collection agency. Mr. Stone is their alias for the billing department staff. Why would an ISP need an alias for their staff? ...A LOT OF ANGRY CUSTOMERS. | |
