It turns out that the housemate that was out of town did indeed order personal 800 service from MCI. He thought it sounded like a useful idea, so he ordered it. The problem was that they couldn't put the service in his name because the line was in my name, so they'd start up P800 in my name and would allow him to switch the billing of the P800 service to his name later. That's why it came mailed to me. However, he ordered it months ago and had forgotten about it. He's now going to tell them to get lost since he's moving out in a month (No, I'm not kicking him out of the house for messing with MCI...). I'm still curious if using the 800 service would have switched my carrier over to MCI or if I'll still get switched sometime down the road because of this. Sorry for the misinformation. Matt
