Confused?

Post by dm1a »

Hi...either I am confused or the customer service rep I spoke with today is confused. Here's what happened....

Last year I bought the "full meal deal" DSL home internet service, ATA, config file, modem, number ported etc...the whole nine yards.

Last week I cancelled the DSL home service, but want to keep the phone service. The CS rep last week understood, and all should be well.

This week I get a bill for internet service, I call today to question it (issue resolved), but at the end of the call, as an "oh by the way", she says that because I am switching ISP, I will only be able to use the desktop app and not the landline. I explained to her that I have an ATA and bought the config file...she said that I will have to buy another one. I say, no I don't, I already bought it...she says the ATA will have to be re-configured or I will lose my number.

Which one of us is confused?

The lady you talked to yesterday is full of it. She has no clue what she is talking about and she needs to be trained properly. Escalate your issue to Fongo staff members on this forum.
