• September 26, 2002 8:00pm. 15006997201 and 15006997200 have rung busy for a while this evening. We have sufficient equipment that this should not be happening. We have notified Verizon of the problem and they are investigating. Update 10:30am Sept 27 - Verizon has been working on this this morning and will be watching for problems this evening.
• September 24, 2002 10:00am. Adelphia began blocking mail from midcoast.com Thursday without letting us know. They claim to only block email when they receive a mailbomb from a site. We are not aware of any such activity originating from midcoast.com and told them so. Adelphia is removing the block this morning. Adelphia says they may block again if they receive a mailbomb. (A mailbomb in email is when a very large amount of mail is sent continously in an attempt to fill up email boxes).
• September 23, 2002 4:40pm. Some customers reported busy signals on 1-500-699-7200 today. 1-500-699-7201 is fine and has plenty of ready modems. The 7200 number received 24 more modems today, and is expected to receive 96 additional modems this week.
• September 23, 2002 We have received several messages indicating that Adelphia is blocking email from midcoast.com. We have not determined why they are doing this and hope to receive an answer from them. We don't know of anyone else who is blocking email from midcoast.com.
