可得留神!下面是渥太华新闻组的一个哥们儿用完sympatico的下场,弄不好您也得陷进去。

AVOID SYMPATICO!

I signed with up Sympatico's High Speed Internet service back in 1999.
Unfortunately, I decided at the time to go with automatic monthly
withdrawals. At the end of June 2001, I contacted Sympatico to cancel my
service. As per Sympatico's instructions, I returned the DSL modem and
accessories to the nearest Canada Post branch on July 27, 2001, and
received a stamped receipt. They continued to withdraw funds from my
bank account in July even though the account was cancelled, paid in full
and all hardware was returned. In February 2002 (after making several
telephone calls over a 4 month period) I was sent a refund cheque for
the ³accidental² July withdrawal.

On May 3, 2002, I received a bill from Sympatico requesting a payment of
$345.08 for the DSL modem that they claim wasn't returned. I called them
and told them that I had indeed returned the modem (and have a stamped
receipt from Canada Post dated July 27th 2001 to prove it). On May 13th,
2002, (10 months after canceling my account with them) without my
permission, they went into my bank account and withdrew $345.08. Now, I
have a fight to get my money back. My advice to those of you thinking of
going with Sympatico is, DON'T! SYMPATICO IS BAD NEWS. THEY ARE
COMPLETELY INCOMPETENT. THESE GUYS TREAT CUSTOMERS LIKE CRAP. STAY AWAY
FROM THIS COMPANY. Go with Cable or Magma. AVOID SYMPATICO!

I'm hoping that the power of the Internet will teach this pathetic
company a lesson.

Dan Lussier
 
不知道哪种付款方式是最保险的,SYMPATICO除了AUTOMATIC PAYMENT和CREDIT CARD,不接受别的付款方式。

老子也吃国BELL的亏,这个公司是SUCKS。真出问题是没人理你。
 
I have the same proplem with sympatico. I canceled my sympatico internet service on Feb. but I still received the bill. I have phoned them on Apirl. they said not more bills but on this month I received the bill again.
 
那怎么办,这不是落入虎口了吗?经常碰上了这种装糊涂的主,AOL也是这样。
这些主,你送钱给他,就高兴,态度就好。一有变故,马上翻脸!

以后反正如果是Authorized payment and Credit Card的付款方式,就得小心为好。
 
我从来不用自动转帐的。凡是这样的公司,给我的第一印象就是要钱钱钱,所以不跟他们谈买卖 :p
 
I have cancelled my service and waiting the mail box to return the Modem.
But they forgot to sent the mail box to me and remember to charge me $345 for Modem.
Sympatico is very very bad. If you have another choice, don't use them.
 
当然是用信用卡保险,你cancel前进去把信用卡号或expiration date改掉,他们就拿不了你的钱了.要拿了,还可以让信用卡公司去打仗.
 
有这一招?能不能赐教具体的操作方法?先谢了
 
三八的抠有个10Hour免费DIAL-UP STANDBY SERVICE ATTACHED TO ADSL,我敢肯定三八的抠内部有人泄漏,盗用我的user name和password,该贼人前几次都没超10小时,后来贼胆一大,就开始超时乱用了,结帐时莫名其妙扣我20多, 我反映情况(非投诉),还让它们倒打一耙,

可是用假的卡号和expiration date会有legal issue吗?

只改一位,较理也可以说是输错了.

再说你不是cancel了吗?为什么还要交钱?

没那么简单。信用卡号码的选取不是随机的,要符合Luhn公式,否则的话网页上的creadit card number validator这一关你都过不了。要想改动成功,至少要改动两位号码,而这两位号码改动以后又正好符合Luhn公式的算法,概率很小,人家完全可以据此认为你是fraud。

奉劝各位想在信用卡上做文章的哥们千万悠着点。
 
俺星期一刚转到Rogers. 而且俺转完后用rogers的帐号看俺sympatico的流量是7.0GB,可星期二晚上就变成了7.1GB.

而且俺打电话Cancel sympatico帐号的时候,人家说要Cancel只能到7月12日结帐的时候。不知道到那时候俺的流量会涨到多少。
 
完 了 , 最 近 刚 打 电 话 去 cancel, 真 的 这 么 麻 烦 吗 ? 我 也 是 用 的 信 用 卡 自 动 付 帐 。
