I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me It isn't satisfactory, but I am tired of fighting them They are truly a bad business, as I have seen by all of the reviews on line I had to pay someone else to get my landline functioning properly Even they could not figure out how it was installed that resulted in my landline being non-functional So, it had to be redone There was no way I was going to give Guardian any more money.I realize I received no resolution from them, but their actions will be repeated by me to everyone I know I will continue to write reviews when I find one I haven't already written on and comment on how unscrupulous they are.I appreciate the Revdex.com's help in this matter Unfortunately, you just can't make some companies do what they should do.Regards, [redacted]
