The Major Companies.....

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Referral Group Incorporated

I guess this is a rant. I don't do well with Cable or Phone Companies. They increase their rates with more regularity than than anything I have ever known. Introductory rates are advertised that don't really exist and are never available to long time customers anyway. There is no real customer service to rely upon, and any communication is designed to frustrate the one without power and who needs real service. Years ago it was better, or maybe I was just naive, but no matter what I no longer have the stomach for it. Rant done.

Sheila I agree they are frustrating especially the Cable Companies.  Once they have you signed on to a contract they have you over a barrel.

Hi Sheila- rants are a way of keeping up from blowing our lid so rant away.  I suspect that many feel your pain.

Good morning Sheila.  I learned a long time ago we are nothing but a number to them and many other companies.  Just a sign of the changes and times I guess

Ugh, you have been having issues with your cable for way too long.  I don't like having to deal with big companies either and I am always having to renegotiate with them when they raise prices.

That's true Brian. I do my best but I miss the old days of TV without Cable and the 3-5 channels was OK too. TY    Sheila
