Ya' Know What Torques Me Off?

[Wagtail]

I just said to myself "thank you for the $100" and banked the money.

I do hope that you've documented your attempted communication(s) with them... whatever the 'statutes of limitation' are, I wouldn't be surprised at them trying to recover that $100 years 'down the track'. "Our records show that..."

(Hopefully I'm not telling you something you already know)

The truth be told, it wasn't mine to begin with and if they hadn't made it impossible to contact them I would have returned it. So if it comes back on me, I will just take the money out of the bank and return it to them.
I never claimed to be very smart.

Land line is sep. from internet.. cell service runs off a "booster" connected to internet.. no internet=no cell..
ya don't think I thought of that? {common sense}

So you have no cell phone service at your house (direct from a tower)?

I understand... it wouldn't surprise me that 'they' would tack on "interest accrued" for the time that you had their money.

I just had to go yesterday.. I had to fight w/ the lady who told me my office visit was 75.00.. I told her is was 40.00.. we went round & round.. I ended up paying her 40.00..
3 minutes later, I was taken back to the exam room where they promptly put a BP cuff on me.. as expected, my BP was thru the roof..{as expected}.. The young girl was conserned & said, I'll be back w/ another cuff.. she never showed back up.. lol

Months after cancelling with (Explornet) my ISP, they charged my Credit Card almost 600 for their expensive cast aluminum radio. Many hours and phone calls later, no luck, just empty promises. Then I paid my New ISP to remove the old equipment from my tower as Expornet could not interest any of their dealers in that job, and those dealers would not return phone calls, mine or Explornet. FINALLY I got my money back and offered to drop the radio off at a dealer. No she said, just recycle it! Gotta love the stupidity and dysfunction.

The people were always really nice, but so, so glad to be rid of Exlornet, hopefully forever!

MY wife.. Lol
I sent her for a gas can.. BIG MISTAKE.. a 10 minute conversation about a 2nd handle.. IF IT DOESNT HAVE 1, DONT GET IT..
Last thing I said to her.. I even chased her down while she was getting in the car to REPEAT MYSELF.. NO HANDLE> DONT GET IT..
She comes home w a 5 gal can w/ a "bump out" on the bottom.!!! just some place to "pull up" or steady the can.. NO 2nd HANDLE..

I agree. I had Explornet, and it was awful. Fortunately, a local guy on our lake set up his own network, and so many of us are now using that instead. Very reliable, and very effective. Also switched my phone to that guy’s network. Works great! And it is a lot cheaper than Bell.

She needs a hug and a "Well done, Sweetheart". Now let me tell you a little story. I was going to the grocery store, and the wife told me to get her some specific feminine products; she told me the brand, product size, color, package size and all the engineering specifications. At the store, I suddenly found myself in the requisite aisle, all alone with this vast array of alien items. In vain, I was searching the shelves, the products and trying to find the particular item I was sent for...when I noticed this rather tall, attractive and smiling woman peering at me around the corner of the aisle.

I tried to ignore her and act nonchalant, as if I knew what I was doing...but she wouldn't have it. She walked right up to me with a big grin on her face, and says: "Now you know how I feel when my husband sends me to the hardware store". We both had a big laugh.

GREAT STORY, Cruzer.!!! {& so true}

Car insurance is another one>> If you find yourself switching ins. companies.. WAIT a few weeks before cancelling your old one..
SO MANY STORIES about licenses getting suspended for not having insurance.. because the new co. didn't process the paperwork BEFORE your OLD insurance co. cancelled your policy..
