Well, that's the thing...
How should you treat your customers? One would think with kid gloves, but
it's not always the case...
#1 went to england and ireland on a school trip and called home every day
(#1 was homesick). #1 used the sbc calling card (back when they hadn't
remerged) so AT&T decided to charge us as high a rate as possible... worked
out to about $500 in calls... after much pestering, we got them to reduce
it to what an AT&T customer would pay (pointing out we were AT&T customers)
but it took forever to get that worked out with their customer support staff...
Once they got the bill straightned out (ended up around $200 with the rates
we should have had), we paid the bill, waited a month and cancelled AT&T...
