Anyways here’s the letter I got from SR,

It has been our pleasure to service you at SunRocket!
I’m going with packet8. I got a great deal with voic.com where I got my cell phones and am quite pleased. Though I’m still really pissed off at SR!

Sorry, I have just signed up with Lingo. I signed up with their Yearly Talk 365 plan, costing just $195. I hope they will provide me services without any fault.
All SunRocket(SR) Customer,
I was a SR customer, as I understand that SR played a bankruptcy game to the customer, it looks that they planned this game when they had a promotion for 199/yr plan, they rubbed the balance money on each contract from the customer, TeleBlend(TB) takes over everything from SR except contract, they just changed the company name from SR to TB.
Do you have any idea to handle this issue, it is not a small issue, it is a big,big,big, huge issue, it is related to 200,000 customers
We have to ask government to protect us to have it in fair, where is the government? where is the policeman? where is the lawyer? where is our congressman? did they know the issue or not?
Regards,
A SR Customer
As the matter of my business, I switched to Lingo when I heard about the SunRocket bad situation. Unlike SunRocket, it works really well. For my $49.95 Home Office 2000 Plan, I get more service than what I expect.
Hey Tisha,
I’m glad that Lingo worked out for you. I have gone to Viatalk and they’ve been incredible. I really like their service. The user control panel is much more intuitive than Sunrocket’s was and they offer many more features.
