Sounds very frustrating about the internet/ phone. Good luck!
There's a hilarious book (Ciao, America!) where an Italian journalist describes his posting in Washington DC. One of the funniest things about it is when he sets out to get a phone line. He's all ready for a fight with the phone company bureaucracy and he feels quite smug, because he thinks that as an Italian, there's not much he doesn't know about fighting bureaucracy. And then he's so disappointed when it takes about 10 painless minutes...
