Haha.. Poor thing didn't know what to say

She can't spell for crap. Plus, if they really did a speed upgrade, just ask for a higher level support and he'll redirect you to the central, where they can raise the speed withen few seconds.

RE: Gay.Oh.Lol - AOL Tech Support by aNILEator on 04-01-2006 at 10:46 PM
similar thing has happened to me countless times before, except last time i moaned at them for not answering me for 30 minutes saying they were too busy drinking, coughing and looking at porn.
they then told me to be patient and that they were doing their best
I even tried to prove that they were BOTS because it kept returning the same result whenever i said i had a specific problem countless times in the same convo box

Sorry, sympatico service totally sucks. They have disconnected my connection twice for no valid reason, and needed weeks to get it repaired. I switched to videotron. Lots faster.

I use Rogers High Speed, I havent had any problums with them (well only once when they were upgrading hardware, and that was only about an hour). I get about 2.6 MB.

That sucks. I'm having problems with my ISP too. I am paying for 2mb but have 1mb and have for months. They said that they couldn't speed it up for a few weeks and I should say when it has speed up so I can get my money back.

AOL needs to rethink their name. If you see the adverts people are tricked that AOL somehow stops fraud and children viewing porn etc.
RE: AOL Tech Support by aNILEator on 04-02-2006 at 01:40 PM
indeed, i hate their current adverts
AOL has built in spyware protection (no it doesn't its built on IE and downloads activeX stuff automatically, also the spyware protection is an extra application )
more lies

Me: Look, my internet connection has been offline for an hour. I know you're going to transfer me, BUT IT BETTER NOT TAKE 45 MINUTES LIKE LAST TIME!
Him: It shouldn't sir.
*Two minutes later I was transfered*
Me: What's the problem?
Him: Your modem burned. I'll send someone over tommorow night to give you a new, free one.
You have to call. I personally think that's the best way.
