miserable details.  There are details about a "cancellation fee" and the
horrors of CompuServe's customer service personel.  A CompuServe supervisor,
Rocky Buchanin, was unwilling to help Tina C.<

<As a matter of FACT, CompuFraud was unable to provide her with service --
CompuFraud's half of the agreement.  Therefore Tina C. wasn't about to
continue paying for service that she wasn't receiving, which was
CompuServe's intent!  Instead she cancelled the account and CompuServe
decided to charge her a hefty "cancellation fee!">

Dave responded:
<<The cancellation fee was *in the contract*. You seem to imply it was
gratuitously added on without any basis.>>

But the contract also -- as ALL contracts go -- require both parties to
perform certain services.  Tina C. agreed to pay for service and CompuServe
agreed to provide that service.  In actuality, CompuServe broke the
agreement by not providing services.

<<BS -- you have gotten emails telling you this is horridly off-topic. If
Chi.internet was moderated at least your dross would be reduced.>>

1) How do you know what e-mail I receive, unless you send it?  2) If this
newsgroup was moderated, you may have had your last message deleted for
swearing.  You are a REAL role-model.  How are you qualified to moderate
forums when you swear, insult and try to intimidate people on the Internet?
