Hate those nagging ppl.! I think a good way to treat them is to discontinue your service with them, unless you really want to keep yourself with this company, then I’d suggest to call their supervisor in person and ask him/her to stop acting like kids!!
Hopefully that works..
Have a nice day

I’m going to try the “lite” united networks subscription for the simple reason that most of my online activity is casual at home and I’d rather spend money on my other projects :P
