    They are like mosquitos

    They get through telephone screens, firewalls, and I'm afraid to look under my bed.Two days ago one called to ask about my car insurance, I told them I sold my car so that you couldn't bother me anymore. Yes, they use american names, and you can't understand them to begin with. Till the age of 5 I spoke mostly polish cause I lived with our grand parents. After my first year in germany I could actually buy other things besides, and get directions. That's almost gone now also. I'm too old to learn texting and tech rap.And rap music, is gibberish to my ears. I'm a vanishing species. I WAS AN ALTERBOY, AND AND KNEW ALL THE LATIN RESPONSES. tHEY ARE GOING BACK TO SOME OF THEM NOW.

    I dread trying to talk to those tech's with the Indian Accents. I refuse to talk with them and ask to speak to their supervisor as soon as they get on the phone.

    So I feel your pain guys.

    The last time I talked with a Microsoft Tech, she was from the Philippines and spoke fluent English and was very enjoyable to talk with. But some of the guys that work for the tech companies are useless. I make them repeat words as much as I can just to piss them off. Maybe if we all did that they would all quite and American Companies would be forced to hire American's for those tech jobs again.

    Say hello to "Steeb's" boss for me.

    If I paid for a service with a credit card and it didn't work I'd just call my credit card company and cancel the payment. Just advising a quicker way to get your money back if the product's are junk.

    Windstream

    The tech. sevice reps were english speaking. I re-installed the new modem, and the results were the same. The only difference was a new set of numbers to enter, that didn't work.She also said it was the device, and then I said " you can't help me can you ". I told her, and the survey that followed, that I would be exploring different ISP options monday.
