- (Computer software products) 1) Late Rebate payment 2) No apparent identity as to what the rebate repayment was for
making
it
difficult
to
track which rebate went with which product and thereby making
it hard to know if rebates were all paid. 6/24/04 VeriSign - 1) Junk Mail 2/17/09, 2) Fine Print - VeriSign will give a $10 gift card to survey participants. Very, very fine print states the $10 will go only to the first 500 participants possibly getting far more surveys than payouts. As the economy worsens, we will see such supposedly trustworthy companies, like this one that supposedly deals with Internet Security issues, do such "untrustworthy" things. No wonder we don't have any faith in corporate America. Like VeriSign, it's all "tricky dicky." I do not plan to use their logo. That would be hypocrisy. Verizon
Wireless - 1) Junk Mail 9/14/01, 2) 99 cent pricing

an account??? VIP

Voice over IP may be the coming thing, but unless you're really
willing

go
through
the
hair
