Hmm... I've had an on going issue with Optimum on-line since Nov. of 2004!
They have yet to address it. I was on the phone just last week, after I
recinded payment to them again, and was promised the world. So far, all
I got was several $100s poorer and no resolution.
Verizon, hurry and get that fibre run.
