AOL is to the internet as Democrats are to politics.

I have AOL and looked for ways to contact them for always using a Liberal for their "campaign" reports or questions.. FINALLY I found a link to send a comment about their news section....so I wrote this long email etc and sent it...never heard a word of course....on our welcome page has been a picture of the caskets of dead Armed Forces covered with flags, since last week... I have given up trying to protest to them....the ultimate protest is of course to stop using them, but other than them being Liberal Traitor Loving Kerry supporters, I like AOL ..
I have a lot of fun with their "Ask George" StepaWHATEVER
email link.....I've sent him so many emails with RANTS and RAVES, and I always check and he ALWAYS deletes mine ( I put my biggest rant in the subject line ) or picks ignore when he gets to mine HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH that always gives me a good laugh for the day...

Once AOL has your credit card number, they continue to charge it no matter what.

In which case you complain to your credit card company about credit fraud

Indeed.

Another analogy is that AOL is to the internet as training wheels are to bicycles!

Complain to Dick Parsons.

"IMO, just go to the polls and vote for W, and take some friends to do the same...it's an election season, and you will see plenty more."

I've never really been politically active, but have sure tried in the past four or five years to improve that. I've voted every year since I could vote and am nervous about voting this year. It's the first time I'll vote absentee. (We were PCS'd to Boston.) I sent my application for an absentee ballot off weeks ago, and haven't heard anything back. I'm worried! I guess I was hoping for a little note saying, "Chill out...we'll send the ballot when it's time!" lol

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I appreciate your time and help! I'm off to my son's football game but will call AOL when I return.

Hey, I'm in Kuwait. I pay 120 a month for DSL and it is heavily censored. I'd love to get any kind of connection for 24 a month.

AOL is a leftist shill of an organization but they also just have a bad product. Get rid of it quickly!

In WV, they allow us to vote up to 20 days before the election, IN PERSON. My wife and I will be in the Caribbean (if there is anything left) on the first tuesday in November!

In which case you complain to your credit card company about credit fraud I did "successfully" get rid of an AOL account on one of our computers - but you have to document all your contacts with AOL - and it may "miss" a billing cycle - so you have to be vigilent about making sure AOL and the credit card company KNOW you have records and they must issue you a credit.

AOL is sickening with their liberal slant, they are as blatant as the TODAY show and CBS news with their bias.

If you actually get a human on the phone at AOL, expect a heavy Indian accent. Their Customer Service office is somewhere in India.

Call AOL in the middle of the night, if you want to reach a human, and tell them you want to disconnect. Ask them which billing cycle they are in and when you can expect them not to charge your charge card Then call your credit card company and inform them that you will protest any charges made from AOL after that date.

Dump AOL; they're garbage ISPs, and in league with lib-dem scum.

Parental control software is freely available at ZDNet.com, News.com and Tucows.com download sites.

When you call to quit, also send a certified, sig-requested return, letter so you'll have documentation that you've quit using their trash service. State names and dates and times of ending service, for the record.

I have several customers whom I've gotten off the AOL horror show, who've experienced continued billing for months. Attaching documentation to the bill and returning it to AOL, unpaid, quickly ends that fraudulent scenario.

"Go get a DIRECWAY satellite system "

I would LOVE this! When I moved here, the only internet connections available on the base were dial-up...and satellite. I seriously considered selling one or both of the children to finance the satellite installation, but a few months later they made cable internet available. I hounded the poor lady at Comcast to the point that the day they went "live"...she called me, informed me I was the FIRST on the base to get it and told me to look out the window. There was a comcast truck outside waiting for me..lmao She's on my buddy list now and we chat now and then.

Looking back, I must have appeared a smidge obsessive? lol
