Cool! Phone company paying ME money :)

[vi edit]

Well, sort of. My phone company and DSL provider is a local coop that provides service to ~50,000 customers, both residential and business.

Each year, the coop pays back earnings dividends based upon your usage percentage(monthly bill). This year I'm getting back $125 from them. Woohoo! Pays for my DSL connection for three months.

It's not like they are overcharging in the first place either. My monthly phone bill is no higher than what I paid under US West or McLeod, and my DSL line is cheaper than Media Com cable modem service.

I think it's a nice thing to do on their part

I would owe them more. My usage is though the roof.

adelphia had this awards points systems, and i had like 30k points, then one month they released an offer to redeam like 20k pooints for a free month of cable modem service, i immediatly redeamed it. On my next months bill, they had gave me my credit, then charged me again and put a note on it saying they are canceling the program. Man i was so pissed. I want to kill the adelphia execs with spoons in their nostrils or something. i hate adelphia.
