The dial-up internet provider that
NEVER lets you
cancel your membership.
Many people I know have tried to
cancel their membership with no success.
me: I would like to cancel my AOL membership.
AOL rep: (After a
long conversation)But we'll give you 2
free months free.
me: All I want to do is cancel my membership. I
don't need it anymore, I have cable modem now.
AOL rep: But AOL is the best blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
me: Please stop trying to get me to not cancel I already told you I
don't want or need AOL any more.
AOL rep: But we have superior anti-virus software blah blah blah blah bah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
me: You are getting on my nerves and wasting my time.
AOL rep: But 2 free months blah blah blah blah blah blah...
me: fine
whatever (I hang up after a lengthy conversation and at this point AOL has ruined my
day and I'm pissed off)
I uninstalled AOL from my
computer, and had to call my credit card company to report my card lost so I could get out of my AOL membership. I travel a lot, which is why I used AOL to begin with. Fortunately most hotels have high speed wireless internet access now.
