Please folks, when you flame a company at least give some background on why you are doing it! I have been using MCI for four years now, after trying both AT&T and SPRINT. I switched from AT&T to save me money (~$15/month with my calling patterns), and I switched from SPRINT due to noisy lines (which I hear is no longer a problem). I have always recieved excellent and prompt service from MCI. Also line noise is almost non-existant (maybe one modem call per two months experiences it). The only complaint I have with MCI is that they removed the around-town feature from their card, but nobody else has it either.
