Swimmod_Luna Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Or set to switch over to my name on my move-in date, anyway. Hooray After they set it up they connected me to something called "AllConnect" which was some guy trying to sell me discount cable packages or some shit. I looked it up and apparently a lot of utility companies do this shit. Fun. I didn't even realize the person I was talking to wasn't with the utility company until I checked my e-mail later. I thought it was just someone from a different department to confirm all my info. But then he started trying to sell me shit and kept saying he was "just trying to help me" when I politely declined. Wouldn't take no for an answer so I just said I was busy and had to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naraku4656 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 i've never had a utility company try to sell me cable, that's really weird. gas is so much easier to cook with and deal with than electric. i had an electric range in my apartment and i haaaaaaaaaated it, gas is so much easier. electric ovens are ok though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't the utility company it was some totally different company. The guy from the utility company was talking really fast at the end of the call and all I heard was "confirm your info" so I agreed to let them transfer the call. The guy from "AllConnect" didn't identify who he worked for so I figured it was just a different department at the utility company or something. He had all the info I had just given to the utility company and confirmed that it was correct, then started some high-pressure sales tactics. Didn't realize he wasn't actually from the utility company until I checked my e-mail later and had something from "AllConnect". Had no idea what that was so I looked it up and saw tons of reviews from people who went through the same shit as me. And I agree gas stoves are superior.

Hope I didn't accidently give them any info or agree to anything. Other than the one email I haven't gotten anything from anyone, some ppl on the review site said they got tons of junk calls and emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnight Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I would like to have natural gas in my kitchen, but the only natural gas in my house comes from my ass, which isn't very helpful in the kitchen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
