So, I’ve been trying to access WIR for a week, Angel on her site, Flourish and 8es. Along with various other sites, like Nat. Frustrated and unable to text Angel because my phone has utterly crapped out on me for texting, I do the next best thing. I call AT&T and ask them wtf is going on. So, apparently by some random act of randomness, they MASS BLOCKED me from being able to access all of the sites above as well as about 100 others. The woman on tech support was dumb, had no idea what was going on, and said, “I’m not sure what happened, but I can remedy the situation. Would you like me to?” …uhh yeah. That’s why I called. So I tell her to please do, and she tells me it’s fixed. “Alright. Test it out and give us a call back if there’s any trouble.” I was like, “Shouldn’t you stay on the phone while I try it right now?” “Oh no, that’s not protocol. You have to call back if the issue persists.” She tells me this, after it took TWO HOURS to get through to someone the first time because I was being bounced around under the pretense of “user error”.

I ended up having to call back, but only because she kind of half-assed cleared the “list” of sites I couldn’t access. She apparently thought there was a Parental Block on the account, so she didn’t want to take them all off. She didn’t even verify who was calling vs. the name on the account. The account is under Alecia Stephenson … guess who that is? *facepalm*

Anyway. I’ll blog more later. I have so much catching up to do over on 8es. If you want to know more about what it is, just click the link and read about it.
