I just spent ONE HOUR on hold. I've been a loyal customer with TDS for about 5 years. Sadly its mainly because we don't have any other providers in my area due to it being a rural area. But to wait for one hour is sad. They don't even have the option to save your time and call you back once a customer service tech is available.
