While I don't like their >attitude towards reselling, their service has always been impeccable. We had decent service with the connection (not great, but not bad). Their customer service was absolute crap though. I would call with a problem or question, my sales rep would never (and I mean NEVER) return my calls, and if I got someone on the phone (billing or tech support) they would tell me that I had to talk to my sales rep. I left voice mail after voice mail and it was never returned. Finally a month after we had a problem with our bill, I got email from my sales rep asking if we had gotten the problem taken care of. Too little too late. I don't know what the problem was, I had dealt with this sales rep for about 2 years before this without problems and had sent several customers to them, but when I started an ISP they just acted like they didn't want to deal with me. Sprint has been like a dream compared to the nightmare we had with UUNet (now known as ScrewUNet around the office here). Darrin R. Woods | "I'm so happy that I, can't stop crying."
