I'm sure some of you have stumbled upon this story by now, but in case you have not...
It's a must, as these customer reps are the people that deal with your accounts and billing.

Audio recording, it starts at the 3rd rep and gets handed to the 4th, then last.

George's own blog that covers the whole thing from start to end (so far).

I've had my own trouble with shear stupidity at Verizon. Fortunately nothing of this scale, but this incident doesn't surprise me. That's why I'm now a happy T-Mobile customer.
