I’d bet against them being offical in any capacity.

As for being bitter, he and many like him have every right to be so. Instead of lambasting the customer, maybe finding out why their opinion of you is lower then having a root canal with no anaesthetic would be a good idea.

Then again, this is Bell. Their opinion of customers never exceeds walking ATM machines.

I am using Bell’s phone service and sympatico ADSL. The internet is ok, which is fast and stable. The issue is the phone, i pay $20+ and it never rings. Most of my friends prefer voice/video chat with my online.

I am thinking of switch Bell phone to Rogers Mobile phone. I paid same money, but I gain mobility to carry the phone.

Although Sympatico support reps claim that dry loop service is available only to Sympatico customers, third-party ISP’s have a procedure to order it from Bell. I’m using a dry loop with a third party ISP myself.

What you need to do is order the dry-loop service through your third-party provider, which then places the order to Bell. Argonaut, ViaNet, Look Communications, Telnet Communications and others are familiar with this process.

Just give their techs a call and inquire.

Does Bell have to provide me with a dry loop even if I am using another DSL provider? My impression has been that I have to use Sympatico.
