I shall do.

I am amazed at the different approaches to customer service between the various tech companies.

I used to have DirecTV and to get it "off vacation" I just called a toll-free number, said a few words to the automated system, and seconds later the TV channels sprang to life.

With CenturyLink it is like getting teeth pulled - and while they have you on the phone they take every opportunity to try to sell more services to you.

A shame because whoever they were before CenturyLink took them over had a great website where you could go on or off vacation at the click of a mouse.

So the technology is out there - it just depends how hard for you the companies want to make it to go on or off vacation.
