Lying Straight At Night - Yes I Am Now

I worked for a local ISP for about 6 weeks several months ago. I was sacked prior to my trial period ending on the pretense that the job really needed a full-timer and not two part-timers, which they had changed it to in order to hire me. Possibly so...the job was hard when the front end didn't know what was going on in the back end, but I also believe that my opposition to their prices had something to do with it (and the unlimited plans hadn't even been introduced yet). Of course, this was never raised as a reason though.

I shall say no more and let the links do the talking. The first link is said company (yes it is totally legit) and the ensuing links are opposing companies price lists for dial-up plans. I have taken out the direct URL linking by requiring you to remove the space between http:// and www. Thus, they must be copied and pasted into a browser and not be seen as linked to this page...for both legal and privacy reasons.

I could never figure how anyone signed up for them when there are all these advertisements for cheap plans on TV...but they do! Particularly older customers that feel they need a local walk in store to feel comfortable. The problem is that the company only operates Mon - Fri from 9am - 5pm. There is no outside of hours support whatsoever.
