Just so everyone doesn't get the idea that MCI is the only bad guy and AT&T is the good guy, I have to tell you my story... A few years ago, when my area first got a choice of long distance carrier on 1+ dialing, I signed up for Allnet. I have been reasonably happy with them since. However, AT&T apparently decided that all those people who left when given the choice couldn't still be happy, and so it appears that AT&T called all such people in my area some months after the choice was first given. They invited me back into the AT&T fold. I said, No Way (though I occasionally use them with 10ATT), and guess who slammed me. At least AT&T had the courtesy to send me a nice little note how happy they were to have me back just before getting Pac Tel (local carrier) to switch me. They got a nasty note back from me and they soon straightened it out without cost to me, but they (or their hired telemarketers) had slammed me. I have bad-experience stories on MCI, Allnet, General Tel, and Pac Tel too, but at least none of those slammed me. Don Lynn
