Every month around this time 15th or 16th, I get pretty aggro (that�s short for aggravated). I�m whinging yet again about paying my bills. Paying the electricity is no worries; I just pay that at the post office. As for the phone, well that�s a different story (I�ve previously logged and vented about this). So I went to Armentel to pay the monthly bill like a good little citizen and the process took a mere hour and a half.

As if the wait time is not enough, with everyone shoving and pushing, they tell me I owed for 2 months. This is apparently going back to the day I installed the phone line back in June 2001. I was so frustrated, I did not argue with the lady and just paid it. I then asked if I could also pay for the following month since I won�t be in the country. They assured me if I pay the monthly rent only, and not mobile calls that I�ve made this month, they won�t disconnect my phone. We�ll see when I get back whether I�ll still have the lovely Armentel service. As you can tell I don�t think much of their service but who am I to argue? It only took me two hours to get over it!
