Business Channel

Anyone heard any rumblings on the B2B front for BAMS and MAMS? Cuts or territory changes?

This company needs to get its priorities straight

The fact that there is a touchless number for months now and that managers get on beat up calls because of it is absolutely absurd. This number does nothing for us. The fact that I get b–ched at because I didn't do something touchless and then my... — read more

Are all US Owned VZW Call Centers closed for good?

Winter weather in the South
