Ordered Bellsouth ADSL 3 weeks ago.  Install  is scheduled for tomorrow.

Just received a call today that they couldn't test my line because of
an address conflict.  I verified the address as correct.  It is the
same address they send my phone bills too.  It is the same address
they have come to on two separate occasions to fix line problems.
Apparently the guy who is supposed to test the phone line can't read
a map.  I live in an apartment building and the street only exists
within the complex and is about 300 meters long.  It is on any Thomas
bros. map printed within the last 5 years.  Fed Ex and UPS make
deliveries here all the time--I guess Fed Ex and UPS have higher
intelligence/educational requirements for their drivers than
Bellsouth has for their telecomunications technicians.  I don't
know if I want one of these dumbasses in my house now.

The sad part is they have a big building on Strickland.
From my porch, using a 7 iron, I can hit a golf ball and hit their
building.

What a bunch of idiots.  Now I got bounced back another 3 weeks.
After reading all the stuff on this group I knew something would go
wrong.  But I expected a more exotic excuse:  Time Warner-trained
squirrels eating wires, lightning strike, the-two-weeks-before-Y2K-bug
bug, something... but an imaginary address conflict 100 meters from a
major Bellsouth maintenance structure?

The only reason I wanted Bellsouth is my company pays for
my phone bill and internet and Telocity can't put it on my
phone bill.  So I will just have to send in two bills instead.
A small price to pay to be free of  their crappy service.
