I’ve been absent recently from the more active voices of the online world. I apologize for folks who read this blog. Lately I feel like I’ve been consuming so much and had little to say. Or at least that is a convenient excuse.
But I turned to the blogosphere today (as opposed to the quick and dirty world of the Twitterverse) to voice my complaint about AT&T Mobile.
I like my iPhone – I’m a fan of Apple’s – and I have had a reasonable experience with AT&T. They don’t mess up my billing and I haven’t had nightmares with their service.
But lately they’ve been sending me spam. Little store announcements telling me to come in and check out their new, refurbished store. But these stores aren’t in Virginia. The latest one is from Indiana:
Visit our recently remodeled AT&T store to experience the latest in communications technology: AT&T 1102 N. Wayne Street Angola, IN 46703 (260) 665-6417
Why should I be getting this?? I will never go to Angola, IN. And if I’m a liar and do, it won’t be to check out their store.
I think it’s ridiculous marketing that only has the potential to anger its otherwise satisfied customers. So I’ve unsubscribed from their e-mail.
Does that mean I won’t get my bills anymore? Because that is the only reason I signed up to begin with…
Nothing like clearing your mind of a good old fashioned complaint to bring you back to the blogosphere.
