From Pine View Farm

The Most Annoying Woman in the World 2

“Hi. I’m Jane from Verizon.”

RoboJane has found my new phone number.

The Do Not Call list doesn’t work, because I have a “business relationship” with Verizon (it’s called a “telephone line”).

So I will be subjected to Verizon’s marvelous marketing campaign, which appears to be based on tormenting subscribers with phonecalls from RoboJane until they sign up for Verizon FiOS just to make her go away.

News for Verizon: Every phone call from RoboJane strengthens my resolve never to sign up for Verizon FiOS. Or Verizon TV. Or anything else from Verizon except for a landline for the 911 call I hope never to have to make.

    The link will throw me into moderation, but read it. If you go with their cell phone plan, since you have a smartphone, it’s gonna cost you to get out of the contract.

    I know.  They recently upped their cancellation fee significantly.

    I’m happy with T-Mobile.  Tastes great, less filling.
