Words fail me! EDIT
EDIT: I called the woman who is supposed to be trying to get our DSL woes sorted and left her a message that my email account had been cancelled. This morning I actually got to talk to her {usually we leave each other messages} and she told me the enail account had been reinstated. Apparently it was cancelled automatically when someone or something somewhere noted that we had no Verizon account!
I checked this morning and it is alive. But, of course, no DSL as yet. Next week will be the sixth week…. hmmm, maybe it will be the seventh…
There is NOTHING nasty I can say about Verizon that isn’t true! As well as keeping us waiting five weeks {and we are still waiting} for DSL., I am here at the library trying to get my email only to be told when I sign onto the library computers that my account has been cancelled!
So, I guess that means that the order I put in to Amazon for a text book I NEED for my Italian class won’t be sent to me since I have no email address now? I hope that isn’t true! I desperately NEED that book since the college book store is {of course} out. The instructor told us this morning that she has been using this book for three years and the college bookstore gets about five each year! {The class is 12 students which is small. It generally runs 12-15}}
So, the bottom line is as follows:
- Italian is fun
- I hate, loathe and despise Verizon!
- I am looking forward to pastels starting next week.
- Verizon sucks!
Until later….
Quit Verizon! Boo hiss!

*huggs* is there any other dsl in your area? I haven’t had any problems with yahoo. Italian sounds like fun!

i’d get earthlink if it’s available……….

If there is any other DSL provider in your area, I’d suggest switching. Verizon has treated you deplorably and have done nothing to warrant any faith in them. They are (as J and I would say) SPOOTY. Verizon has forgotten that they are, above all, a CUSTOMER SERVICE COMPANY. Their customer service, apparently, sucks.

Bonjourno Cara Mia! I have no idea what I just said.

You should call Verizon and tell them that you’ve decided that if they cannot get you hooked up this week then you’ve found another company to go with. They wont want to lose you as a customer so they step it up and hopefully get DSL for you A.S.A.P. Glad you like Italian!!! <3 Annie-Rae

OH good GRIEF!!!!!
Warning Comment
OH NO!!!

I’ve heard really bad things about verizon too..
Warning Comment
You need to write a big long letter to the head of Verizon and tell him where he can stick his service! Do it now don’t wait any longer. They have forgotten you. Unless they are sending someone from California to hook up your Verizon.

unbelievable!!

Oh dear, I can’t believe they are doing this to you. It sounds so very stressful.
Warning Comment
You have my sympathy. What an aggravation!!!

technology has failed us again – not an original quote but quite often apt.

Get your DSL from soemwhere else…screw them!
Warning Comment
boo to verizon. you should tell them that you are telling everyone you know not to subscribe to verizon. hope you are doing well.
Warning Comment
GRRRRR
Warning Comment
You really should call up and raise some major you-know-what. Unless, of course, you’ve already done that. Grrr!!
Warning Comment
Did you tell them you’re senior citizens? I recall Hubby’s uncle getting service pronto as recently as a few months ago…
Warning Comment
OMG. you really need to drop verizon!
Warning Comment
Have fun taking courses. I should look into some in Florida.
Warning Comment
What a hassle! Can you set up a hotmail account for your email?
Warning Comment
Verizon needs to die!!!! Holy cow, I can’t BELIEVE what they’ve done to you!!!! I would be calling them every 15 minutes just to scream!!! Glad you’re liking Italian. It’s pretty isn’t it? Definitely a Romance language. Hang in there. Love ya! ~M

i wish i had DSL as an option. But it sounds like verizon sucks and I hope you get it worked out soon. ((hugs)) 🙂
Warning Comment
I’m thinking verizon kinda sucks too, based on my experience with having one of their phones.
Warning Comment
Evidently, Verizon feels they have plenty of customers and no longer feels they have to give customer service. I’m so sorry that you’re having to deal with this right now.
Warning Comment
my goodness. I knew what this entry was about before I even started reading. I think I would have cancelled the account myself and moved on. Pff. I can’t believe Verizon.
Warning Comment
ryn: NC wouldn’t let me keep my NY plates. If I had let it go past 60 days I would’ve been subjected to these outrageous fines. I found out the cost of registering was so high because NC charges a highway tax. So every year I’ll have to pay a certain amount. RIDICULOUS. It is also ridiculous that you still have no DSL. Did the woman you talked to have any explanation for that?
Warning Comment
grrrr@verizon
Warning Comment
that’s awful- I hope it sorted out soon.

Warning Comment
Note to self: avoid Verizon at all costs!!! This is unbelieveable. Tell them you are going to start an email campaign to boycott Verizon. If they have any sense, they will listen.
Warning Comment
🙁
Warning Comment
this is way beyond ridiculous. you have got to write a letter about your experience. italian sounds fun though.
Warning Comment
Good luck on the Italian. I am trying to get better at Spanish. I suck at verb tenses, so I have a workbook to drill with. Sure you see the horizon soon with Verizon. They are awful!
Warning Comment
Can u just drop verison:( Who needs this kind of stress? And to lose yer email account – what idiots! Vista Way
Warning Comment
Yes, why in heck don’t you get a anew provider for dsl? There must be some!! Anna
Warning Comment
ick. i’d be hopping mad, too. this sort of thing really has messed up your otherwise wonderfully planned move
Warning Comment
Wow, you sure have had a hard time with this Verizon stuff. They must’ve set some new record “low” with you…. why YOU of all people?! I’m glad you’re enjoying your Italian class so much, and sure hope you finally get DSL soon so you can tell us all about your pastels class and show us your new artworks!! hugs, Weesprite
