    Frustrated as F

    So I've been trying to get internet service at my townhouse for about 2 weeks now, and can't seem to get it done.

    I put a deposit down and had service set up through one provider, then they called me a few days later and said that they can't set it up because someone already has an open account at my residence. We've been here since September so I don't understand why the previous Tennant would bother keeping their service open when they don't even live here anymore.

    So I'm wondering, if I were to buy or obtain a modem from somewhere, could I plug it in and use the internet? Or would I need to know the previous tenants info like their password or whatever?

    I just want to play Xbox live and watch Netflix dammit!

    What she asked^

    Usually it's cut off within a couple months of the previous tenants not paying/announcing their move.
    Even if the previous ones had the same service, your billing information and account is completely different.

    Why, yes. The world does revolve around me.

    That's what I thought, but from the sound of it, they're still paying their bill. And it's through Charter/Frontier.

    Ugh I hate Charter, we have them for Internet at work. They should start you a new service.

    Yeah they told me I'd have to have the landlord contact the previous Tennant to have their service disconnected before they could help me. Stupid.
