| reply to Dogfather Re: Duh
That "not using enough long distance fee" really p'd me off. Verizon waived the, "honor of having their long distance service on my line" fee (w/ VZEncore), but then had the nerve to start charging me $2 (later upped to $4) every month if I made less than those amounts in long distance calls.
So I ported my number to a prepay cellphone, switching my DSL to dryloop & weaseled a contract of them to keep the same $29.95 rate I was paying before w/ the Encore bundle.
As for the DSL itself, I'm satisfied w/ it. Been trouble-free for as long as I can remember. A router maintains the PPPoE so I don't even deal w/ the "logon" anymore. And then I'm not on P2P/Torrents downloading 300GB/month of crappy movies or other garbage so the 3Mb is more than adequate. |
