AOL is losing MONEY...YAAAAYYY!!!

I hope they go under completely, I've had to deal with at least a dozen of their customers who had to finally tell their bank or credit card companies to stop withdrawing AOL monthly fees when AOL kept doing so, AFTER telling them their accounts had been terminated. I've also had to repair at least 30 computers trashed after installing or removing AOL software. which is near impossible even for me to completely remove...

Not to mention the deceptive advertising...have you ever grabbed a calculator and checked out their "free" 1000 hours? 45 days, 24 hours each, adds up to 1080 hours. That leaves you 80 hours to eat, sleep, work, pick up the kids from school, mow the yard, watch the news or whatever else you may need or want to do in those 45 days. The average person sleeps 50 hours or more in just one week...7 days. 300-350 hours or more in 45 days. That makes actually using your "free 1000 hours" literally impossible. AOL should have been sued right out of existence long ago, they have been using that kind of deception to lure unsuspecting customers for 10 years.

I hope AOL dies a slow, painful death.

In order to get the "free", you have to call their call center and get them to change the plan to free. Like they did for cancelling?
