Sorry…We have received this work order that was already scheduled for 5/8 morning. There are no notes from any dispatcher speaking to you and changing the appointment date/time. Below are the notes on the account and no appointment changes have been made. Called to t/s modem; modem is offline… t/s modem is offline…Upgrade for the Unlimited Bronze 12…set expectations… I do not know who this sales group is.

The sub-contractors who do the installation and repair are professional; the problem is with the office-gnomes who appear not to listen even to each other.
