Flowers Thursday, Jul. 12, 2007 - 12:22 a.m. Last night on TV, I saw a snippet of the movie Animal House, in which Dean Wormer made the following observation about the effect of the presence of Delta House: "Every Halloween, the trees are filled with underwear. Every spring the toilets explode." And I realized something. That's also the reason I've enjoyed living in San Francisco. --- Charlie Sheen is engaged again. And, women think he's a catch because......??? --- And Sprint is actually standing by its recent business maneuver:
The customers were told their service agreements were terminated; they wouldn't owe anything on the final bill; and the company would waive termination fees. They must switch to another wireless provider by July 30 to keep their current phone numbers. In debate on the Internet, Sprint has attracted criticism that it's penalizing consumers for trying to get what they paid for, or that the frequent calls reflect poor service by Sprint itself. "These accounts have been researched very carefully," Sprint spokeswoman Roni Singleton said. "We feel strongly that the decisions we made, we stand by them. These decisions weren't made lightly." Singleton said the targeted subscribers each made 40 to 50 calls a month to customer service. Singleton said the review also found that the subscribers often were calling about the same problems over and over after Sprint officials felt they had resolved the issue. She said some callers were repeatedly asking for information from other customers' accounts, which customer service workers aren't allowed to divulge. Officials at competitors AT&T Wireless and Verizon Wireless said that while they may terminate customers who are abusive toward customer service operators or violate other terms of their service agreements, they don't terminate customers because of service calls. I will bet you a great big bouquet of flowers arrived at Sprint HQ, paid for by Verizon or AT&T. --- All right. Have a good Thursday. ---
