I'm a little ignorant on this aspect of the cellular industry. I know its common for credit card companies and broadband companies to out-source and even send overseas their customer support but is this also common in the cellular industry as well? | |

| Re: Doesn't this... Normally, I'd say no. But if you read the article linked to in this BBR news topic, and the previous BBR news topic on the issue: »www2.broadbandreports.com/shownews/60837
you'll see that BellSouth was paid $18,000,000.00 (in cash, land, and a building) to locate the call center in Lafayette until 2011.
So in this case, if BellSouth pulls the jobs out before then, they'll be breaching that contract. | |

| Our Elected government controled by a corporation. This is fast becoming our form of rule in this country. Our elected government is being directed by a higher power - the corporation. Those we elect have totally forgotten they were elected by the people. They are doing everything big business is wanting with no regard for the effect the decisions are having on the people.
If you don't think this country is being ran by a small number of huge corporations, this is proof positive. | |
