    Are you happy with your ISP?

    I am in the midst of switching from cable to DSL. I ordered the DSL Extreme package exactly a week ago and I called to see why the installer didn't show like he was supposed to at 1pm. When I called, they had now idea what the hell I was talking about.

    I jumped thru the hoops and talked to a number of people from ther today only to have to replace the order that I already placed a week ago. I told thme that I made my living online, but that made no difference: I was just going to have to wait 4 more business days to have the modem delivered (counting the weekend, another week).

    I called back and told them I was just not going to be able to do that and finally got somewhere. They are now shipping the modem overnight.

    *sigh*

    How do you guys feel about your ISP?

    Ah, crap. Sorry for the double thread (http://www.gfyboard.com/showthread.php?t=568342). I am on dial up at the moment and went back to correct the subject there.

        Yeah, I'm pleased with mine.
        Been with it for 5 years and I've had no need to change.

            My ISP rules - i have roadrunner. My motom was fucked up (i fucked it up, lol) I called them about it and they replaced it with a new on 3 days later. ;)

            I also overpaid them one month. They send me back the extra the very next month. Roadrunner is the best!

                        No, I have comcast and I seem to lose connection every 20 min or so, it's been like that for at least 5 MONTHS. I called for the tech guy to come to our house, all he did was give me a new modem and I STILL lose connection all the time. I hate calling cust svc and dealing with them over the phone so I just live with it.
                        I hate talking to cust svc people, I get stressed and irritated, I just don't want to deal with it.

                        When it goes out I just unplug it and put the cord back in the modem and it works again after a min.

                          You have to have at least 2 ISPs all the time, some fault tolerance is a good idea in networks, as in hard drives.

                              couldn't be happier - I pay end up paying about $300.00 every month for my Internet, that's what? only 10 times more than the folks pay in the US or Europe, oh and I have the fastest one availible here - 1 Mb line, all in all I pay 10 timaes more for a line which is 10 times slower

                                  What ISP is that? I'm supposed to have a new DSL ISP put in today. If it arrives here today anyways.

                                      I love my cable company. I've been with them since broadband came to my area, and have had very few issues.

                                      One of them was an intermittent connection issue that was a bit harder to track down, but they have an outstanding tech guy who stayed right on top of it until the situation was resolved.

                                              Never had an ISP I was happy with... It gets even worse when you move to a third world country.

I told them that I made my living online, but that made no difference: I was just going to have to wait 4 more business days to have the modem delivered (counting the weekend, another week).

                                                  I called back and told them I was just not going to be able to do that and finally got somewhere. They are now shipping the modem overnight.

                                                  *sigh*

                                                  Well, I got the modem on Thursday and the service was supposed to be activated yesterday. It took a number of calls before someone realized that there was a typo in my login info (they misspelled Turboface) and that was the reason I could not connect.

                                                  For as frustrated as I have been over this whole fiasco, I just don't care anymore because I am online and flying again at last. Woohoo!
