What if I were deaf? (I'm not, despite what some people may think). It
must be hugely annoying to a deaf person to be told that email is not an
adequate means of communication and that voice if the only acceptable
mode.
Darn right. Ask them for their Telex address if email is too modern for them
to handle

When Optus upgraded their cable network a while back, which was going to
render my old modem obsolete, they sent me a new cable modem with
self-install instructions (despite their usual line being that people
have to pay for a tech to come round to install modems). Installing it
was easy (how hard can it be?), but it had to be registered on their
network, for which they wanted me to phone to provide the umpteendigit
HF MAC id.
They absolutely refused to do this by email, despite the clear benefits
of having the id written down, rather than recited over a phone line. I
remain bemused by their stance. Apparently they'd rather annoy me than
use the same information from an email that they'd otherwise get from a
phone call.

It certainly did. This I know, because optus sent me a second one, whichOn 2010-02-10, Sylvia Else<sylvia@not.at.this.address> wrote:

actually compare ?
