Vonage?

[Cleo]

I afraid that like my neighbor who just got his Vonage I didn't use anyone's code but you would have thought that someone would have given me theirs when I first started saying I was getting Vonage. I was a bit annoyed with my neighbor who asked me to help him setup his Vonage after not bothering to mention me as his referral.

Just got off the phone with FUCKING Earthlink. Over one hour on the phone to get an early disconnection fee of $149.95 removed. Three different Indian phone support people and lots of time on hold listing to the repeating message on how great their service is. Last one that finally did give my a credit minus the $50 change of service fee kept on telling me he doesn't hear very well so I told him that probably phone support was not a good employment choice. None of them seemed to understand English very well or at least not my northeast accent.

And I see that Bellsouth has not actually released my phone number to Vonage so hopefully this is just a delay and not another issue that I'll have to spend hours on hold resolving.

While I was on hold I did find at least on DSL provider that provides DSL without having to have a phone line from Bellsouth so if Bellsouth and/or Earthlink pisses me off it is nice to know that I can get backup DSL service for about the same price as I'm paying for a phone line from Bellsouth to carry the DSL and Earthlink DSL service.

I am loving the Vonage service and I'm very happy with it so far.
