040901 - Discussed with Millie the advantage of having a second line for the
040902 - modem to help her with the computer. It works much better if we can
040903 - talk on one line while looking at the screen via modem on the 2nd
040904 - line. She asked me to order the 2nd line.
040906 - ..
040907 - This may come handy for working at L&C or at some other outfit, if
040908 - that materializes.
040910 - ..
040911 - Should get confirmation within 2 days.

0411 -
0412 - Talked to Cynthia at Pac Bell
0413 -
041301 - Cynthia initially set up order #N35567337, then when we decided to
041302 - consolidate the billings, Cynthia said we can use the original order:
041303 -
041304 - T14536566
041305 -
041307 - ..
041308 - Arranged to add a 2nd line at:

041310 - 1158 St. Matthew Place #103
041311 - Concord, CA 94518
041312 -
041313 - ...for Internet access.
041315 - ..
041316 - Cynthia said the 2nd line will have a different prefix. I asked about
041317 - getting the 2nd number to increment the 1st line so they are easier to
041318 - remember. Cynthia said it costs $10 for her to place a call to get
041319 - two sequenced numbers. I asked her to do that. I was on hold for
041320 - about 15 minutes. Cynthia came back on line and apologized for taking
041321 - so long. She said she is holding to get the information on the two
041322 - sequenced numbers. I asked her to call me back when she gets the
041323 - information. She said she cannot call back until after 1300, because
041324 - she has to keep her line open for incoming calls. I asked to talk to
041325 - her supervisor. She asked me to hold on. She came back on line in
041326 - about 5 minutes and said she is holding for the supervisor, but has
041327 - the two numbers.
041329 - ..
041330 - Cynthia said she will waive the $10 charge for getting these numbers
041331 - because of the time I was holding. I asked if there are any other
041332 - charges Pac Bell can waive because of excessive hold time? Cynthia
041333 - said she cannot waive other charges.
041335 - ..
041336 - The new phone number in the apartment is changed today
041337 -
041338 - from: 510 686 8664
041339 -

041370 - 1st jack and $35 for each additional jack.
041371 -
041372 - Decided not to have the technician come out. We may be able to
041373 - figure out the wiring ourselves based on what is at 440 Davis
041374 - Court #416. If we cannot get the phones to work, we can ask the
041375 - phone company to come out and do it.
041376 -
041378 - ..
041379 - Consolidated Billing - 2nd Line Not Listed
041380 -
041381 - Cynthia asked under what name we want the 2nd line to be listed by
041382 - Information and in the phone book? I said we don't want it listed.
041383 - Cynthia said it it will cost another $.30 per month to not list the
041384 - 2nd line. I asked her to call Millie to see how she might want the
041385 - 2nd line listed. Cynthia put me on hold and called Mille. She came
041386 - back on line about 10 minutes later and she got Millie's voice mail,
041387 - but did not leave a message. She asked me to consult with Millie and
041388 - let them know how to list the 2nd line. We decided to list it as
041389 - Millie Buck, and if she can change it if she wishes later.
041391 - ..
041392 - I asked about consolidating the billings. Cynthia said we can do this
041393 - and it will eliminate the need to have a duplicate listing in the
041394 - phone book.
041396 - ..
041397 - Decided to use consolidated billing to simplify payment.
041398 -
041400 - ..
041401 - Monthly charges
041402 -
041403 - The $6.00 per month billing rate measures the time on local calls and
041404 - there are different rates for time of day. Within the $6 rate
041405 - customer can make $3 of meassured calls and over that there is an
041406 - extra charge. Calls received and sent to the Message Center are
041407 - treated as calls against the measured rate.
041409 - ..
041410 - Calls from 510 to 415 are classified as "local plus" which are not
041411 - charged against the $3 per month limit for the measured service rate
041412 - of $6 per month. The total cost for these call is:
