		<description><![CDATA[September 10, 2008


Dear Mr. Mueller,

I apologize in advance for this email. A gentleman in your position and responsibility should never receive such a trivial email. However I feel you need feedback on your customer care.

I am a single parent and it is critical I am able to communicate with my daughter at all times. I would like to list the sequence of event that has taken place and unfortunately the problem has not been resolve am I am left without service at this time.

1.	July 2008 my cable was disconnected on accident by Qwest and it took them a week to reconnect me again. When I called in I was on hold over 1 hour and then when someone came on the line they were very rude to me and said they could not help me. No one seemed to care that they had made the mistake of disconnecting my service ( that I had not asked for) and so I had to wait until they had time to come reconnect me when I had never asked for it to be disconnected in the first place
2.	Called and requested Internet Service on August 29, 2008 at that time I spoke to Lisa in Billing. I was on the phone with her 2 hours just to try to set up connection. At that time I was told that I had to have a telephone in order to have Internet in my home. So I agreed to a phone line as well. This was to be installed September 9, 2008  between 8a-12p and the Internet September 11 between 12p-5p.
3.	September 8th I called and confirmed that a technician would be at by home between 8a-12p.
4.	September 9th I had taken the time off from work to be home between 8a-12p. No one had showed up by 1:30 so I had to go to work. The gentlemen did not show up until 2:30p.  At 3:30pm I tried to call home and the phone was not working. I asked my daughter to check the phone at home and there was no dial tone. At that time I called Qwest and spoke to a lady named Laura. She said that was normal and I would have a dial tone at 6:15pm when my order was put into the computer. That did not make sense to me but figured she knew what she was talking about. I waited until 6:30 and nothing. At that time I called into Qwest once again on my cell phone (going over my minutes) and spoke to a gentlemen named Mark. He told me what Laura had said was not at all correct. I should have had dial tone as soon as the technician connected my phone. He told me to go to Radio Shack or Wal-Mart and get a 2 line phone splitter. Not knowing why I should have to go buy anything. I proceeded to do that and of course that did not work.
5.	September 10th I called Qwest and spoke to a lady name Jeannett and was told a splitter never would have worked. And also that I did not need a home phone to have Internet.

As you can see I have been on hold for hours. I have had very poor service. And I never get a straight nor correct answer from anyone. I was told my total cost for TV, Internet, and phone service would be $94.77 per month and now I do not even know if this is correct. As of right now I still do not have phone service. But I am sure they are charging me for it.
 I am very disappointed with everything that has happened and continues to happen. I have always paid my bills on time and do not understand why I can not get the service I am paying for and common curiosity from your employees.
Please advise me what can I do to help Qwest expedite a solution to my concerns and problem?

Thank you for you time in this matter.
Sincerely,]]></description>

Mueller had said that despite the cyclical nature of the economy, the company doesn&#8217;t plan to change his course. In the other housing crisis Qwest had to take a financial loss when it relocated Mueller to Denver. When Mueller joined Qwest, the company bought his home for $8.9 million in September 2007, and recently sold it for $7.1 million. That&#8217;s a $1.8 million hit, thanks to the housing crisis.
