What's the story about the $15 ? I know I had to pay that when I
switched to unlimited local calls for $11.25 from the moderate plan of
$, six months ago. When you say that it deletes your old line order do
you mean that with DSL you no longer have to pay the $11.25 and only
the $3.25 + $ 39 ? If it's not the case I'll switch back to the
moderate plan since I won't be making that many local calls anymore.
I'm just wondering if I should tell them about that now.
cheers
