Default The Villages, Fl Phone Directory

Are they so incompetent as they can not get my phone number right in this phone book, i have called "Customer NO Service" every year for 6 years now, and each time they reassured me they will change it. Are they that stupid, or do they not care, i think the latter. Does anyone have any solutions for me, i won't call them again, maybe i should call......Gary Morse, Janet Tutt, Dianne Tucker?

My only problem is when out-of-towners come here, and try to call me, they can't get in touch, this has happened a couple of times that i know of.

I would rather not have my name in the book at all, that would be better than wrong information.
What say ye?

You can take some solace that no one uses a phone book anymore.

Hey! We bought last October and didn't even get listed. First time the wizards that run this place did something wrong that directly effected me. I do not live by "The Wall".

I don't think they have anything to do with the phone book.

Not true! I know several who still use a phone book (including me). I also use the web to find a business but I've found I can usually find a local business or individual faster in a phone book.

I got my land line last October & was given a number that had just been disconnected as the previous owner decided to use only their cell numbers. For 1 year i have said "sorry they no longer have this number". Guess what? The new 2014 phone book has the previous owner still listed with my phone number & I am not in the phone book. How stupid can they be?Whoever they are?? I was going to call Monday, but I guess I will be wasting my breath on stupid people. WELL, I AM GOING TO CALL. I AM MAD.

Default useless villages phone book

We aren't stupid, ( I think) but have can never find business phone numbers. We give up and use the computer rather than trying to figure out how they have it listed.
