Verizon is my internet provider, but now they have notified me that as of March 24th, they will no longer be providing an email account. Seriously, with the money that I pay them... they are being this stingy!
Now I have to find a new provider and transfer the accounts over to them.
But my question is that some sites don't want Outlook, gmail, etc.... they want the email of your provider. Well, my provider is no longer providing email. Now what am I to do?

I wonder why some got the notice and others didn't. Hell, my system shut down because of a battery they installed in my garage went dead. Verizon wanted to charge me $98 for a house call and $35 for a battery. I did it myself for $18. Don't get me started on their cell phone charges.
Like I said... dropping the email platform but not reducing my bill for taking away something that I was getting with my internet.
Humm... any lawyers out there interested in some sort of class action for doing away with a service that they charged for and no longer providing... but for the same cost?

So, is CH one of those sites that may give me trouble with having an AOL email account and not one tied into my provider? I guess if so, what are the Admin thinking about this change?

Made the switch, kept the address, really don't see any difference, so far.
