Darlene’s Commentary:
I recently called Frontier, but it took two more calls to get a
representative. Unfortunately, that representative wasn’t human, even though it
had a giggly, happy voice that could fool Siri! After pressing buttons for 20
minutes, I got a REAL HUMAN who cheerfully answered my questions. I was a happy
camper until later when I suddenly realized I’d forgotten to ask about getting
my out-of-order phone repaired!
