Re: [PLUG] Another SpiritOne Question

I've also had mostly good luck with Century Link. I had issues with their corporate people, but my local office (I'm in Vancouver) took care of me no problem. I found it much quicker and easier to get things taken care of and fixed by going into the office in person. I've never had a wait there

I doubt the battery power they supply is the significant reason they want to turn off twisted pair analog phone service. There are other issues at work. See "PSTN Sunset" on google, also this:

I was recently told you can ask for an $85 "forever"-rate (as advertised on teevee) too. But you have to ask. And it only takes effect at the start of the next month. On Mon, Dec 11, 2017 at 10:28 AM, Dan Bolduc wrote: > Looks like we're paying the same amount when

Re: [PLUG] Another SpiritOne Question

Ali, Fwiw, when we lose power at our house in NE portland, the T-Mobile towers all lose power too and I don't have any cell coverage without driving out of the neighborhood to a working tower. I don't know if this applies to other carriers, but it has been my consistent experience here. Russell

Re: [PLUG] Another SpiritOne Question

Looks like we're paying the same amount when the promo period runs out, you just got a much longer promo period than I did. Mine was only 6 months. That's a hell of a lot of cost savings over 1.5 years. Jealous! On Mon, Dec 11, 2017 at 9:40 AM, John Jason Jordan wrote: > On Mon,

Re: [PLUG] Another SpiritOne Question

I also have Centurylink fiber and I'm pretty happy with it. I have heard that their customer service isn't good, but since I switched I've only needed to call them once to upgrade to gigabit, so I haven't needed much from them.Overall I am happier with them than I was with Comcast, which I guess
