That was 2-3 years ago, they technically didn't break the contract because they WROTE the contract with all the legalese to protect themselves (AKA they explicitly state that channel availability may change), which I had no choice about, because my options were: Take it, or Leave it. "This is the same contract everyone else signs. It's non-negotiable." I could choose between VZ or Comcast, which is more choice than some people get. Plus it would have cost me more than $425 to go to small claims court, in terms of wasted time. I might lose. And even if I win, where does that leave me? VZ surely won't sell service to the guy who just finished suing them. Sorry I disagree. The small claims court idea is a bad idea. *Additionally* once about 11 years ago I took a crooked used car dealer to small claims court, and I won. (He had overcharged my account and refused to refund.) And then after I won, he refused to refund anyway. And I had no further legal recourse, because the dollar amount was too small to put a lien on his property. So I guess effectively he won. That system simply doesn't work unless both parties agree to it. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
