Blog Update

Hi All. Sorry it's been quite here. My parents left, I started a reading marathon of romance novels that's kept me up late, Bill's in the middle of moving (his things, not himself yet), and to top it all off, Deutsch Telekom decided that my order to go to a lower DSL rate was an order to turn off my DSL. Since it takes three months to effect ANY change anyway, I noticed this on Monday, three months to the day after I gave the order. Sigh. At first I just thought it was a normal outage and then when it lasted three days I called up and found out I was no longer a DSL customer (big surprise to me!). I could turn it back on by phone, but then they'd have to charge me a 99.99€ new connect fee. Right. So I went into the TCom store yesterday, explained the situation and the lady said they'll reconnect me. And her boss will keep an eye on it to make sure I don't get charged the new connection fee. Very nice and all, but it means I don't have connectivity at home right now and I have to watch my bill to make sure I don't get charged.

Also, I'm helping Bill this weekend to straighten up his apartment and get everything ready for the movers on Monday, so I probably won't put anything up here until next week. Who knows though, you may get lucky! :)

I'd bet that they charge you the fee anyway. That's just typical for the Telekom...
