I recently recieved an email about Ameritech is going to sell your account information and that you have to call Ameritech to let them know not to do it. This email places Ameritech as a big evil meanie by doing this.
This email is very misleading. I called up that 1-800 number and asked them about it. They are not selling your information to other companies so they can telemarket stuff to you. Ameritech has parterned with Direct TV and prodigy. And they just want to make sure that it’s okay if they can send stuff to you in the mail about it.
They are NOT giving your info out to other companies. You are NOT going to have more telemarketers calling you because of this.
So please don’t be ripping on Amertech about this. They seem to be innocent.
