I spoke to Canada sometimes when i would call...Directv...i think...for support. No wait it was ATT Wireless. The girl was so damn nice and such a cute voice. I wouldn't have known except she would slip in a little....abooot...from time to time. |

I hope so, but I won't know for sure until I get rolling. The mechanic that did the leakage work yesterday said he replaced every hose that had coolant running through it. He found another leak with my Tripack (it's a generator w/inverter package), so Thermo King was doing some work on it this morning. If it's not fixed, it'll be right back here again next week! |

LOL...that is such a stereo type...but it's accurate. Hey, when you go to a Home Depot or something like that they have the little scanner things at the tills...they're made by a company named Symbol...their call centre is in one of our buildings here. Not sure why I told you, just adding to the info that not all call centres are in the 3rd world. |

True...that's why I don't play online often. Though I've stopped playing it pretty much...too easy to score this year and I find the goalies for both teams are sieves. |

it was funny because it was a long call...maybe 45 min or so. i laughed the first time she said aboot and we talked about it. i must have made her second guess herself because she would say...shoot....every time she did an aboot slip after that. i think the call lasted so long because we spent most of it laughing at her slips. |

Don't get the Dlink VWR router until they get the damn bug list below 100 known bugs. It does ok for calls but shitty for home networking if you are using wireless. |

I had the provider out and they tuned their system up (No issues there) and I was on with Vonage Tech alot as well. Vonage did tell me that my ISP (Who now provides Phone Service) was suspected of sabatoge on vonage users. Yet Vonage had my ISP's Customer Service and Tech Help lines blocked on their service. We had to use your cell phones to reach the ISP |

I heard about ISP's doing things like that here in the US but the goverment was supose to crack down on them for that. In short the ISP didn't want vonage on their system because they want to sell you their IP phone. not sure about the numbers being blocked though. |

They had some other numbers we could only reach by cell phone but I cant recall them. I asked the customer service guy about it when he told me about the ISP issues. He neither confirmed or denyed it he insted gave me and special number that I could use to reach my ISP on the vonage system. This number gets you to the ISP but it is a number that the ISP does not list on their websites or documentation. |
