Re: No surprises
Yea, I used to bend over and take it from Sprint. With the constant AC hum and telemarketer calls twice a week, I had a land line.
No, they are not 100% reliable. In fact, they suck ass. |

Belpre, OH | AC hum can still be spoken over... say, if you need to dial 911.
Telemarketer calls twice a week? Man.. how did you survive it?  |

| It was the same call. It was Sprint calling me 2 times every week to try to sell me new features on my land line. I got so tired of their crap. I used my cell for long distance...
When I switched over to P8, I called Sprint to cancel. When they asked me why, I told them that I had all the features they charge extra for plus unlimited calling US/Canada for $20.55 including taxes. The operator did not believe me and still tried to sell me long distance service. The only long distance I want from them is me, being physically distant from the entire Sprint racket.
There, I can roll my eyes too... |

No there about 99.99% reliable. I base this on about 5 years of landline service. As a matter of fact, I can't remember a single time I was unable to use my landline in those 5 years. I took away 0.01% because nothing is perfect.
