I'm nice too, but the second my customer threatens me or anyone in my employ or otherwise acts like a prick, nice goes out the window, communications cease and they're blacklisted, like permanently.
I wouldn't even reply, just turn him off and schedule picking up the equipment. Might even share his name with other ISP's in the area so they have a heads up. Crazy and self entitled is usually a lifestyle, not a single mistake. ----- Original Message ----- From: CBB - Jay Fuller To: af@afmug.com Sent: Wednesday, October 07, 2015 12:41 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] today's customer issue....yah, get a life dude We're nice.

Just turn off his service in 5 days. If your customers own the radio, you’re done. If not, you have to decide whether to kiss it goodbye or go and retrieve it, and whether to have the police accompany you in case of incident. If it’s a 900 FSK, those are worth so little now, I’d kiss it goodbye.

Your current due amount is $210.00. You can submit payment and update your payment details through our customer portal located on our website at http://www.cyberbroadband.net , or by calling our office at (256) 734-1077. If you have already submitted payment, please accept our apologies and ignore this email. Thank you for your business! -- Cyber Broadband then he continued to reply to the same warning message - most recently with this - ----- Original Message ----- From: x x x To: adm.....net Sent: Wednesday, October 07, 2015 6:31 AM Subject: Urgent! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w55HQS9vlpE Consider all thats happened over the past few months. If youre unaware of what Im referring to, thats an even worse situation. I suggest you explain what makes you think youre entitled to discontinue my service. Otherwise, we can begin negotiations on the damage done to my equipment and CLASSIFIED data. We could move beyond that entirely and discuss better options for your business. Either, you know enough to know that this isnt going to be as easy as you were hoping it would be, or you havent been paying attention. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, as I said before, I suggest you leave our connection active. If I dont receive a response from you today, I will move ahead with my plans for absolution. ....should i report this guy for mental instability? bottom line....i wish we could be notified via email or something when someone removes their billing information....i dunno....just its not the first time that has happened.... that is all...
