Well, that was an entertainment I didn't need.  As I think most of you are aware by now, I'm relocating, and going through the usual shuffle of changing phone and internet providers. Here in Rhode Island, my service was via Cox, and I made the mistake of giving them advance warning about shutting off service, via an online chat today.  I asked them to shut things down on Jan 30, but they proceeded to shut down my internet and phone service the moment the chat was finished. Attempts to make contact with them got exactly nowhere. 

Two comments for the moment: 

First, for the next few days I'll have very limited access to the internet. I'll be online to put through comments once a day or so. 

Second, I don't recommend Cox as an internet provider. Their customer service is very poor and their service in general is shoddy.  Almost any other firm would be a better option. Just saying...

I'll have more connectivity later this week and will be settling into my new digs next week. Stay tuned!

When I moved recently, my choice of internet provider came down to:

1) a notoriously bad cable internet provider (the name rhymes with "bombast)" and
2) a newer fiber internet provider that cost slightly more

I chose the second, and have no regrets. A recent trouble call was handled quickly and conscientiously. I hope you have a similar choice in your new location.
