~U-ped by U-verse: Signed up for Direct TV and U-verse Phone*Internet bundle package, with the self-install option (meaning I would hook up the wireless modem myself. Direct TV install perfect. I installed U-verse equipment and no internet. Called tech support. Scheduled Service tech for * days later. I have one jack for phone*internet. Phone worked fine, internet didn't. Tech had to call in *nd tech to help. Took apart jack, got internet working and said I now didn't have phone service. I asked why and said that's the only jack in this house for phone. They said phone wasn't on the order. Gave me a * to call. Left without replacing jack cover. Now had internet and no phone. Called and got transferred ** times over *.* hrs time, repeating the story each time. **th person figured out phone service hadn't been on original U-verse order. Ordered phone service.
