Happen to me

Saturday I was gonna do some weed eating and it must of been tired cause it wouldn't startso after messing with it for an hour or so I decided to put back in the basement and call it a day at 10am

Since we sent the MIL to St Louis for a week and Halle went fishing Chris and I were gonna spend the afternoon just (no not that )being away from the house.We wanted to go to Gander Mt and just kinda kill the day doing nothing
About 1pm we discovered our phone wasn't working,so Chris reported it using the cell phone,and we were just gonna leave,wrong.
20 minutes after she reported the phone being out the cell phone rings and it is Verizon's repair person,said he is in the area and will be here shortly :shck: that has got to be a record I am sure
After showing this feller where my phone line runs and all the good stuff we had discovered that a ground hog had dug up the line chewed in 2 and hooked up a pc and was trying to log into FinandFur

While talking to the service man he told me that Verizon is being bought out by Frontier which is a western based company and we as customers should expect some changes to the good

We finally got to leave the house at 5pm went to Canton,OH had supper and went to Gander Mt
on the way home we stopped at Menards and checked out the new store and done some compairing to Lowes.Looks like I found a new store to shop in.

Verizon sold out here in Maine to Fairpoint Communications and when I moved and tried to get the phone hooked it was a nightmare...after two months and several complaints I told them to forget it...hope you folks have lots better luck when Verizon leaves your area...

I didn't think it could get any worse

Bill....an hour and a half was about the average wait time to talk to someone at Fairpoint..thankfully the part of town I moved to I could get cell service and was able to use the cell phone when we had to call anywhere.
