I was assured that my number was being required to be used only for urgent matters. > And, honestly, it wasn't given to a "telemarketing agency". Primenet says it was ! Do you know better than them ? Thank you for following the thread ! > Nobody tried > selling him anything, Do you always discuss conversations you never heard ? I suppose you hold forth on books you never read as well. > Or > should I say he's been badmouthing and calling names to everyone? No. That like most of what you've written would be incorrect. I've been rude to the people (like yourself) who have been rude to me. I've been polite with those who have been courteous to me notwithstanding often differing views. > Just > look at the most recent post. What's wrong with it. The guy got a mild flaming. He deserved worse, but he does such a good job of show casing his stupidity and sheep like wimpyness by himself, no more was indicated. > Can you respond without insulting the Hell out of someone? Absolutely. We've covered this. Thank you for following the thread your reading. > Charlie, had you posted a comment about the call and just left it, I might > have some sympathy for you, See that thing fluttering around your head ? That's a cluebird and he's not announcing the advent of summer. He's telling you that I don't want your sympathy and your uninformed discourse re: the matters at hand is nauseating. > Of course, I expect to be flamed and insulted even though my intention > wasn't to insult anyone or be offensive, If your intentions are so bland, then reconcile the following paragraph with the preceding one and explain why that in itself doesn't make you one of the more inconsiderately clueless, time wasters to post re: these matters in over a week. > If/when you respond to my post, do your best to do so tactfully instead of > belittling and insulting and show everyone that you really can be civil. Charlie McCann -- The fact is that Primenet turns over confidential/personal customer information from their data base to Telemarketing Firms to be used for purposes never intended by their customers.
