Re: Vonage suspends my account

Can anyone here spell correctly or exhibit proper use of the English language? I wonder. Good Grief. No wonder they shut people off who don't know how to communicate what their problem is to whichever company they have a beef with. Perhaps the complainants have never run a business, nor been in charge of anything, or ever had to pay a bill on their own? Good Grief.

Personally, I have to agree that there are consequences to a bill not being paid on time, and this is something a customer should be prepared for. As a business owner, I know I do not like having to wait to be paid what I am owed! Why I find this application of the Vonage payment policy to be severe, they are within their rights to do so. I, for one, would not choose to do business with a service provider that suspended service so quickly.

At the same time, while I so not agree with the original poster as to encouraging government involvement and faulting Vonage 100% for the problem, I think that responding with a negative tone and apparently intending to flaunt a level of savvy above that of others posting their views is not particularly helpful. I think that most people write their posts fairly quickly and probably do not carefully select their wording or spelling. That is fine by me, as long as I can undertand what they are trying to say. I also think that this site receives a lot of traffic from nonnative English speakers (I know members of my family do), and I am unaware of any policy that prohibits them from posting.

I am sure I have made one or more errors in this post (it is much longer than I intended), but I just wanted to alert you to the fact that it is incorrect syntax in English to end a sentence with a preposition. Of course, I do not have a problem with that because I still understood your post.

I really doubt this to be typical of Vonage. There is likely more to the story, or a unusual error.

You are absolutely correct. This is something I am always correcting my children for. (Just kidding you.)
