Something I have learned over the years...if a long distance company calls and tells you they can give you better rates and names the other companies...don't trust them. Instead tell 'em...I'll tell you what...using company letterhead paper, send me an official company letter that outlines the plan exactly, and blue pen signed with your toll free number, send it, I'll review your offer and call you back to confirm, yes or no. I'll tell you right now...no fool would every agree to send you such...however, if you find that one person, let them send it out. Should you accept and the company adds charges not outlined in this legal, blue pen signed agreement (contract), sue them. Oh...and if the person says they will send out such if you agree...just remember...don't agree to anything until you have that legally blue pen signed piece of paper in hand. No matter what they say. Let them put their exact charges in writing Albert Wiersch <al@tetrion.com> wrote in message news:C8B38C7BEA64AA4F.47B8EF212DC62755.3EE073FD1E396590@lp.airnews.net... > > By the way, I want to say MCI called me and convinced my to switch to them > by lying to me and telling me that AT&T and Sprint has monthy charges and > they didn't and that my calls would be 9 cents a minute.
