Added bonus: We're probably going to be switching internet providers over here. Comcast has been set up to automatically charge the cable bill to our bank account, but they've been choosing not to do so. Instead, they've been letting two or three months worth of bills accumulate, then charging the account and charging us late fees.
Recently, they haven't been charging at all. We've checked the account several times to make sure the money was there, and it is. Even if it wasn't, the account's set up so that bills will hit the savings account if there isn't enough in the checking, and we know there's plenty in the savings.
So they shut our service off under the pretense that we haven't been paying our bills. We've called and royally bitched them out over it, but we're tired of dealing with them. If they didn't hold a monopoly over the cable internet in our area, we'd go to another cable provider. Instead, we're being set up with dish TV and hopefully nice, expensive satellite internet. Haven't researched it at all, but satellite is supposed to be pretty fast. Not as stable as cable's supposed to be, but our cable was never in a state I could really call 'stable'. I could probably post a great wall of text on how I feel about Comcast, but most of it would be rather... Uncouth.
In any event, Dish Network is set up to come and install things on Wednesday. Internet is on hold, though, until we really decide what we want and what we can afford. It's in my workweek, so I won't be at home to know what happens. Thankfully, our neighbors generously forgot to secure their wireless connection, so I'll still be able to check up on things here. Since it's so busy here and everything.
