Day 2 of my attempt to cancel my mobile subscription with Rogers [Update: Resolved!]

This is how I imagine the customer service computers at Canadian telecom companies.
(It’s also a simulator to train doctors to perform prostate exams.)

I’m closing out my mobile phone account with the Canadian telco Rogers since I’ve moved to Tampa, which is well outside their service area. Yesterday’s attempt to cancel service was called on account of their Cancellation Department’s computers being down for the entire day (although you can be almost certain that any computers that deal with the intake of money are lovingly maintained and quickly repaired).

Today marks Day 2 — wish me luck!
