Compuserve: Compuserve 7.0 minimalist internet service

Tue, 6 Feb 2007 19:09:43 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gregepin04 - I use the internet for basic services, so "bells and whistles" are not a big deal to me. However, you would think that Compuserve would at least maintain their own system at core level. They do not. Compuserve 7.0 operates off a web browser called...

Compuserve: About as bad as AOL

Wed, 27 Dec 2006 19:53:39 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author coeur - Compuserve is like AOL in almost every aspect and the price that you'll pay for it is almost the same as what some broadband services cost. The standard price for dial-up is around $10 now, so why pay almost twice more?...

Compuserve: CompuServe Customer Service is Non Existent and the Worst I Ever Experienced

Mon, 6 Mar 2006 22:52:56 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pete5 - I purchased the item primarily for low volume email service with a dial up connection. What I hated about the product was when you need any type of Customer Service Support, their call waiting times are extremely long, and when you finally get someone...

Compuserve: Had To Cancel Credit Card

Mon, 9 Jan 2006 19:39:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author horsehockey - Stay away from this company at all costs. I wound up having to cancel my credit card to stop them from continuing to charge me for the service I had canceled two months previously. Numerous phone calls to "customer support" yielded only more aggravation...

Fri, 3 Sep 2004 12:57:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chinafrog - Let me start by explaining why I joined cs in the first place. My first ISP was Aol, which was horrendous back in its earlier days(although I don't know if it is still that bad; in any case, I don't care). And my family and I were shopping for a...

Compuserve: Dinosaur Dial Up

Mon, 30 Aug 2004 19:57:00 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bwgoff - Like most dial up ISPs, Compuserve is antiquated. Unless they add an acclerator program, the DSL companies are going to take over. I signed on with Compuserve about 5 1/2 years ago, with a 3 year contract, when I bought a new computer. I tried AOL...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author quantum2 - Signed up to try free first month offer, paying direct account. Went into next month.

Compuserve: Compuserve helped itself to my money

Thu, 22 Jul 2004 20:20:14 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author cravinbob - I used CompuServe internet service for quite sometime under the $9.95/20 hour a month plan and have never exceeded the 20 hours allotted to me as my bill never reflected it. Then suddenly they say I quadrupled my usage for two months (3/2003...

Compuserve: CompuServe = CompuCrap (true equation)

Wed, 7 Jul 2004 01:26:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author danielsaddress - I got stuck with CompuServe through the familiar $300 rebate. I imagine this is the only way a company like CompuServe can actually get customers. Why do I talk so bad about CompuServe? For anyone who's been stuck with AOL, CompuServe is basically the...

Compuserve: Give Compuserve a break, they are great in my book

Wed, 17 Mar 2004 20:02:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dmgdgc4 - I have to admit I signed up to compuserve only for the $400 rebate, it was christmas time and I needed the money. So I figured, I already pay 20 bucks a month already, I might as well get 400 dollars for paying the same amount. I had aol prior to this...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author wadelle2 - I was with Compuserve for five years. They offered a big discount off my computer purchase if I signed on for a year, and it took me this long to leave even though I have never been happy with their product. Not all web pages display properly in...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dotazamo - I tried compuserve through a free disc. I had been without a computer for awhile and was looking for a new ISP.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pachu - I've been waiting for three years to cancel the contract I had with Compuserve. The service was slow, and the customer service worse. Now that is over, I can only cheer because I got out. Even though I sent a written cancellation with two weeks notice,...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author papadoc - I have not had any good experiences with Compuserve, it is constant hassle with disconnects,and then not being able to disconnect when I want to. Telling me they have a problem and need to shut down. Not being able to connect. Not being able to opt out...

Compuserve: CompuServe Monitors Your Service

Wed, 30 Apr 2003 19:22:11 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dandd1963 - CompuServe is basically AOL with a few important differences.

First of all, the browser is slightly different, but actually more attractive than AOL's. Everything is right where you need it, and is very handy for surfing the net. I wish...

Sat, 10 Aug 2002 21:31:07 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author misskcarmona - Whenever connecting to Compuserve, it was extremely slow. More frustrating than that was the frequency with which I was kicked off. Several times a week I would be kicked off. It makes it hard to get any work done. The problem did not improve even...

Compuserve: Compuserve is JUNK!!!

Tue, 11 Jun 2002 19:17:47 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author kylalb232 - I joined Compuserve about 2 years ago, I believe AOL owns them. I got the service because it was fairly close to AOL, lower price ($21.95 compared to AOL's $23.90), and if I committed for 3 years I would get a $400 rebate off my new computer.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mommy2jonny98 - Yes, I admit it I worked as a customer service rep for Compuserve for 6 months. It was the worst job I ever had.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author TazzY2J - When I first found the joys of the Internet, it was when I first went to college. The problem was I stopped my college course after a month. So, there I was, Internet starved without any access or money to get the access.

At my college it was...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dbly1850 - First of all I joined CompuServe in 1987., back when a 300 baud modem was basic and fast. You also paid through the nose for each and every minute of use.. But back then it was worth it. The Data bases and able to search articles was bar none the best....
