Sorry to do this... I have been trying to find a post i read here that (i think) was written by a person using a "mom" or a "grandma"-ish user name. I really thought it was SCMomof5, so I did a search and I've read thru about 200 of her 600+ posts, lol, but I just cannot continue this with a dial-up connection, or I'll be here for days. I also did many searches using key words, but still have not run across it. The post was was very eloquently written, aimed at an unscrupulous CA who (i believe) was using all sorts of stall tactics. It was full of letter-worthy information that I think I could use. Somehow it hit every important point, yet stayed very concise. The most memorable thing about it was the way the post ended with "PPFFFTTT!" or something like that. (yes, I've done several nonproductive searches of many variations of that 'word', lol) If anyone remembers this, please help me out. thanks.
OMG! Have I really posted that many? LOL I do think that was one of mine because of the ppttttthhhh! ending! LOL I have digital cable so let me search and I will try to find it for you...
Heehee! this is cracking me up... I can't believe i remembered that was you. I think your name caught my attention because I'm a mom of 4, and I rarely say to myself "I only have 4 kids. LOL thank you soooooo much. I am so jealous of your cable connection...i used to have cable before we moved out to the middle of nowhere... at least we have running water (from a well, lol)
Water from a well is usually great water. I grew up on well water. It didn't have tons of chemicals added to it.
Well, took a bunch of browsing, but I found it! http://consumers.creditnet.com/straighttalk/board/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33210
oh gosh, THATS IT!! thank you so much. This act of kindness by you is the EPITOME of what this message board is all about!! a perfect stranger asks for help and gets it. THANK YOU! love this part: "Remind them that the point of their existence is to collect on a debt. You are providing an opportunity for them to do so successfully in a business with a 96% failure rate. The ONLY condition you have is that the negotiation is a WIN-WIN for both parties. They must delete to get paid. PERIOD" btw, did you have a nice walk down memory lane reading all your old posts? i'm still a newbie and it cracks me up to read some of my first posts.
yea, i love the taste, actually. But i don't love how it doesnt clean my clothes and how it leaves calcium deposits on my faucets, etc. Hard water is horrible on my hair too. but I'll live. lol.
Believe it or not, vinegar is one of the best things to remove the calcium deposits. You can pay a lot of money for advertising for the other brands, but just try plain old vinegar. We couldn't afford all the other stuff!!
Yeah! Re-reading some of my posts were quite a trip! And seeing how far I have come.... it is amazing! I still have a couple of stubborns that just WON"T DIE, but they will die a 7 year death between now and 1/05! By then I expect to be well over 700! Life is good because of creditnet!
