WARNING - please be seated when reading this.
Yesterday (03/11/02) WorldCom actually called us - three times. It was to tell us that our number was going to be activated in
2-4 hours. Six hours later, this is hard to believe, it wasn't activated. Don't worry. We weren't surprised either.
Today (03/12/02) after several minutes on hold, an actual person was reached. Our story was told to them and we were assured things were being taken care of. Guess what? It is 7:00 P.M. EST and we have contact! Our phone works! We can make outgoing calls and receive incoming calls! We even have voice mail! Is this a great comapny or what? I can't wait to see our next bill.
But, and this is a big but, rest assured. When our contract is up three things will happen. (1)We will cancel our contract, (2) we will find another carrier, and (3) WorldCom will receive their phone back in pieces.
Fellow suckers take heart. There is hope, but don't count on it.
