[...] When the sale of the local franchise by Cox to Cebridge (that has been re-branded as Suddenlink - OK, OK, stop with the commercials!) was announced, we had been told how much better things would be. Humboldt County, while a tiny drop in the Cox ocean, would become a relatively large market in Suddenlink’s system. But with a horribly handled email transition from Cox, erratic email service in general, poor technical support, the odd file upload problem and now this, things appear quite different. Did the company grow too fast by absorbing Humboldt County and other regions? Were they just not that good a company to begin with? Hard to say, now. I only hope they manage to get their act together soon. As we have all learned by the recent fiber outages, Internet access has become indispensable and must be reliable.

I believe what Mr Brewer meant was that the SUDDENLINK site plays games, not YOURS.

Huh? First, all I am doing showing you my settings. I don’t work for Suddenlink, and I don’t guarantee what I am doing will work for you. Second, I am not selling anything. So, whatever your frustrations or whatever you are doing to cause them have nothing to do with me.

You’re welcome!

Ihave spent two hours tonight trying to change
my E-Mail address from allbrewer@cox.net to

play games with you, You put in your E- Mail address as requested and nothing happens it starts trying to sell you something. I am through playing this silly game. Tomorrow morning I will find a company that wants my business Thank You.

I would like to know how you were able to get Mail work with SuddenLink.
I spoke to the SuddenLink Support and the person I spoke to couldn’t figure it out. What was the trick?

Sorry. I have no idea what I was going to write. But I can help. I have gotten two of my computers connected to Suddenlink and have helped a couple others.

“They have a…” They have a what? Please, please finish that sentence. I’m hearing lots of grumbling from other Mac users. I’m thinking about switching to DSL (I’ve never heard any complaints about it), simply because it might be easier than changing my e-mail address with Suddenlink

I couldn’t remember Suddenlink’s name the other day so I thought, “I’ll go to Cox; they’ll have a link.” So much for common courtesy and minimal expectations. Cox’s Humboldt link is a dead page. Nice folks, eh? Grrrr!
