Ok, so everything is all fine and dandy with my AIM service today. Then I sign off and five minutes later I try to sign back on and a message pops ups "Acocunt has been suspended." And I think, how odd. Nothing really to suspend it for. No billing info required or anything. So I get on the phone and have to play customer service tag with who knows how many people and when I finall get one who might knwo what is going on, she has a thick accent and I can't understand a fucking WORD she says to me. They keep spouting off something about an unpaid balance.....when I cancelled my account in AUGUST! I bit th ebullet and paid it thinking it would clear my service, but oh no. Because those AOL fuckers implemented a new program starting today whereby any AIM names attached to cancelled AOL accounts are terminated meaning that I can't use the name I have had since 1994 unless I reactivate my account or wait at least 2 years from the termination date to re-register the name. What in the hell!!?!?! So now I am paying 4.95 a month for AOL so I can keep my AIM name. This is such ridiculous capitalistic bullshit. I am so sick of this consumer corporate crap and sucking the dollar out of every possible person. I am SURE they implemented the program to try and get money out of those people with cancelled accounts. It would not surprise me at all. Whatever. Fuckers.
