So until I get things straightened away I will not be posting. Old posts are still accessible.The hack itself is an exploit of the WordPress system. I am still investigating but it may be related to the fact that I have not upgraded in a while.Let that be…
X-Box Kinect Star Wars – Girly Vader
Over the summer X-Box tried using a store to generate hype for their products. Only they didn’t sell their products. They just had giant tvs running X-Box Kinect, each demoing a different game. Picture an arcade where the games are free and people are jumping and swinging…

I had the exact same problem with Bell when I tried to cancel my mobility account. The day of the end of 3 year contract we cancelled and chose Koodo for our new provider. For 3 months prior we would check on how much it would cost us to buy out early. We checked each month to be informed that we would have to pay $20 for each month and then a $100 fee for cancellation. We decided to wait until contract was up. On that day we contacted them to say that we were cancelling and that Koodo would be taking over the old cell phone number. They told us exactly what to do. We followed their advise on how to do it. Two months later I got a bill saying that we were still on contract monthly with them and now owed them 3 months of service. Service mind you, that they never gave us! You have to give them 30 days notice even when you haven't signed a contract with them and you verbally told them you were not continuing with them. They should have known this as well when Koodo notified them that the number was changed to their provider.Bell Aliant didn't even cancel the plan when Koodo notified them, they waited til the next business day to do so , so they could bill me for another month. I have my home phone/internet/cable with them yet, but am looking for a way out of the contract. I no longer want anything to do with this company!
