We got a call from a US Sprint salesperson about 3.5 weeks ago, asking
us to switch (from MCI) to Sprint.  We asked them to "put it in
writing", and were told we'd get something in the mail.  So far,
nothing.  Has ANYONE got it in writing?  Anywhere?

[Moderator's Note: Sam, that was a television advertisement, not
reality. They did not *really* expect anyone to ask for it in writing,
let alone insist on it.  In fairness to Sprint however, telcos do not
like writing letters. Never have; never will.  PAT]
