Wrote a letter to my Congressman's office. Asked that they contact Microsoft on my behalf. Microsoft had a person from their legal department phone me. However, things remain the same. I have been told point blank, Microsoft is not reponsible for any toll charges a customer incurrs. No matter what, no exceptions !!! No matter that this problem was due to a mistake made by a MSN employee. They are not reponsible for any mistakes by any employees, that result in any damages to any one. PERIOD !! The classic American phrase, THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT, doesn't exactly pertain to this giant of American industry. They lean more toward that classic American showman, P.T. Barnum. Who once proclaimed, A SUCKER IS BORN EVERY MINUTE !!! Microsoft cost me over $700.00. I make this promise to Microsoft, you'll get your money's worth in negative publicity. Oh, by the way. I sold the MSN-TV receiver. Cost $100.00 new. Sold it for $4.95 on e-bay !!! Piece of garbage. Not worth your money, don't buy one !!! Buy you a new computer instead. Another warning..... If you deal with MSN customer support over the phone. Make sure that you have the ability to voice record your service issues. So that you will have proof of what you asked for. Not only do they not take responsibily for damages, caused by employee mistakes....they lie to. In those soon to be historically reknown words of Mrs. Teresa Heniz-Kerry.....SHOVE IT !!! MORE TO COME !!!!!!!
