Ilbert, why am I not surprised? I hope your problems are over.
I have a new problem with Bell. Bell Mobility really. They don't cash
my cell phone cheque until after the late date then charge me for late

I'm reluctant to do bank withdrawals because I can just bet they would
goof that up too.
Such is life.
