So did they hang up on you, or did you hang up.

 

That was my experience too when I was with them. You pay for what you get. I guess it comes down to how much you value your time.

I guess they do that , because they could have a huge bill if someone is calling froma cell phone, and they are left on hold for hours.

I think the real question is why are people signing up to them. I believe is is because they are cheaper than the competition, or their prices appear to be better. Also they have invested alot in marketing.

I always wonder this too. I'd sign up for a bus crash before I'd sign up for Slingshot.




Audiophiles are such twits! They buy such pointless stuff: Gold plated cables, $2000 power cords. Idiots.

 

OOOHHHH HYPERFIBRE!

Yes, they seem to treat landline callers as second class, leaving them on hold and cutting them off.
