  Well, I no longer have a phone in my house. SBC, my phone company, shut it off on Tuesday or Wednesday because they said I did not pay my bill. I did pay my bill, but they said it was late. According to my bill, it was due on June 1. It was paid by June 1. However, they sent out some notice stating that if I did not pay it by the May 25 they would shut it off. I have no idea why. It is not as if it was months worth of bills. I did not get this notice because I was on vacation. I paid the bill by June 1 like I thought I should. When I went to their website, it even said that payment was due on June 1 and that I had paid in full.
However, when I called they said because I did not pay it by May 25, on June 2 they shut off my phone. They shut off my phone after I had already paid the bill. When I called them, they said they would turn my phone back on if I paid them $85.00. I pay my bill on time and in full, and they shut it off and expect me to pay them another $85 to turn it back on.
I think not. Therefore, we are just using our cell phones now. I have never once had any problems with Verizon, my cell phone company. They are always polite if I call. SBC was not. If I ever have any phone trouble, Verizon always takes care of it right away. I called SBC a bunch of times this week before I got an answer. The customer service I got from SBC was horrid.
They hung up on me. Therefore, I will never use their services ever again. These services include Yahoo DSL and Cingular Wireless as well as their phone service. If that is how they treat their paying customers, I would hate to see how they treat customers who miss a payment. For those who need it, here are our cell phone numbers: Phillip- (262) 909-9032 Jenny- (262) 909-9030 Anyways, I did not write yesterday because I forgot. Carolynn was very upset with me yesterday. Her class was singing in an assembly, she was going to read a poem all by herself at this assembly, and she wanted me to come. Therefore, I called the school to ask what time and they told me it had been moved to Monday at 1:00. Therefore, I was going to go then. However, when Carolynn got home she was crying because the assembly was yesterday and she thought I forgot about her after I promised.
I did not forget. The secretary at her school should get her facts straight. She was pretty upset. Today we went and saw Harry Potter and The Prisoner Of Azkaban . The movie was good but it did not really go along with the book that well. There were things that were not explained well and parts they left out. I still like the books better than the movies but the movie was still good. Anyways, that is all for today. Remember, we only use cell phones now. Do not bother calling the house. SBC is the one losing out. Across The Pond What is a truck called in Britain? Answer Lorry
