I'm sure this is true. Users, which is to say "CUSTOMERS" can be maddeningly clueless at times. However that is still no excuse for bullying and threatening. Qwest and others have learned over the last several years, and much to their dismay, that even simple indifference to customer concerns will result in a wholesale exodus as soon as other alternatives become available. Treating customers with the outright contempt that LiveVoIP displays with the statement in question is, again, staggering in it's short-sightedness. > Regardless of what their web site says, they've provided me with the > best service of the half dozen itsp's that I've worked with > directly. And, I don't work for them or represent them. My experience with them has been likewise positive, which proves that they are at least capable of providing good service, on occasion. The fact that some users are frustrated to the point of posting here in this list in order to get the attention of the company's principals, SHOULD strike those principals as a clanging alarm that something in their customer service system is broken. Sadly, the lessons of "Customer Service 101" appear to have been lost on them. And that's a shame, because as we both know, they are doing a largely good job, and it is in everyone's interest (theirs and their cusomters', at least) that they continue to do so. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
