- This is almost exactly what I did. I cancelled my ATI in March I think.
- I then cancelled my modem in April. Well, out comes Teddy Boys letter
- and I start wondering .... Did they really cancel my order? Why did I
- get the letter? I called GW and of course I couldn't get through to
- Customer Disservice as usual, so I left a message with the operator
- to make sure my modem order was cancelled. The next day they left a
- message on my answering machine that they were now cancelling my TWO
- modem orders.
- I NEVER ordered 2. Well to make matters worse, guess what FED EX tried
- to deliver to me a couple of weeks ago. The modem and the ATI card. What a
- bunch of schmucks over there. I'm really beginninng to wonder how they can
- stay in business with such a screwed up organization. I am sorry I ever
- bought my computer from them. (I already talked about my monitor problems
- before). Next time I will buy a system locally. I think it's worth the
- slight extra cost.

- Good luck to anyone who has to deal with that bunch of bozos!
