00:00Well, maybe she'll try that after she tries to get an old lady's phone number back
00:08Well, let's see, she's not small
00:11That's the latest problem
00:13An 80-year-old woman switched phone companies
00:16They won't give her the number she's had for 50 years
00:18I want my old number back
00:20That sounds so interesting
00:22That's all the news we can find
00:25You gotta help me, Bacon
00:26Help!
00:30Do something, right?
00:32Better call Bacon
00:33I know
00:34She's from St. Petersburg, let's listen in
00:36You have the same phone number for 50 years
00:39You get used to it, it's on everything
00:41And then suddenly you have to get a new number
00:43Yeah, it happened to a St. Petersburg woman when she changed her phone provider
00:47And when they broke the promise to let her keep her numbers that she had
00:51Her old number, her decades-old number
00:52She knew that's when she needed to call Bacon
00:54She is set in her ways
00:56Those numbers aren't big enough
00:57I tell people, do not call me on the cell phone
00:59She hates her so-called smartphone
01:02And prefers her landline
01:04And the phone number she's had for at least 50 years
01:07Look at the clock, oh big
01:08I can't see it, it's not
01:11It's on our checkbook
01:12You know our check?
01:13Makes my electric bill go through the roof
01:15That is our number
01:15But it's not her phone number right now
01:17And that's driving Patricia crazy
01:20You see, she decided to switch from Wow to Spectrum in late October
01:25The phone number was supposed to go with her
01:28Just as it has through the years when she changed providers numerous times
01:33But this time she ended up with a new number
01:36A spokeswoman for Wow got back in this afternoon
01:39And said an internal review shows that the customer information was put in incorrectly
01:43And now they've been in contact with Spectrum to fix this
01:47I will follow up to make sure
01:48I can't wait to find out what happened
01:50We don't even know, there's no resolution yet
01:53No, she can't even solve mystery
01:56She can't even fix the old lady's number
01:58No
01:58I'm sorry, Binkin
02:00He's apologizing to Binkin
02:03Yeah
02:03I don't know, I called this news floozy
02:07I figured it'd be getting fixed
02:08You've got a great reputation
02:10An old lady loses her number
02:13Not even Binkin can do anything about it
02:15I don't know what the resolution will be
02:19She showed up in some kind of floozy outfit
02:22Is that right?
02:23Boots and a tiny short skirt
02:25You've called a news floozy?
02:27Yeah, yeah
02:28All I want is my old number
02:30I've had it for 50 years
02:32What are those thousand pages that you have in front of me?
02:35These are detailed notes of every conversation I've ever had
02:39With the people from Wow and also Spectrum
02:44Oh my god
02:45They blew it
02:46And you can't get your number back no matter what you do
02:50Everything I've tried, I've tried it all
02:53Every time you call, you talk to some other foreigner
02:57Well, I'll try to get to the bottom of this for you
02:59If that news floozy can't
03:01Thank you
03:02Robert Stack
03:03It's another unsolved mysteries
03:04Someone said
03:07I'm running out of people to call
03:08To be dead serious
03:10All the time she spent trying to get a fix
03:13To have just been spent telling people
03:15Here's my new number
03:15How many people does she actually know?
03:17I know
03:18I mean, when you get a cell phone for the first time
03:21They give you enough
03:22Like, you know what I mean?
03:23If you have a cell phone
03:24It seems like you can transfer the number
03:26Yeah
03:27But I don't think I could transfer my home landline number
03:31To a cell phone
03:33I don't know
03:34I guess I never tried it
03:35A hundred years ago when I could have
03:38Be what she's trying to do
03:39But it's on her checks
03:40I know
03:41That's what she said
03:42That's right
03:43You can order new checks
03:46Out of the world
03:47People are going to be so confused
03:49Can we send her the 17 bucks to order new checks?
03:51Is that a scroll you have?
03:54Is that your old phone bill?
03:55You shouldn't have it on there
03:57It's my original AT&T
03:59It's on parchment paper
04:01Yeah, uh-huh
04:02I knew Alexander Graham Bell
04:04He gave me the first number
04:08Yeah
04:08My phone number is one
04:11Uh-huh
04:12Two
04:12Three
04:13Four
04:15Five
04:16Six
04:18Seven
04:19Your numbers
04:20And I want to keep it
04:21That's an interesting number
04:23That's one of the first that was ever invented
04:26Yeah
04:26Yeah, they don't give them out like that anymore
04:29But I want it
04:30Apparently they say I can't get
04:31One
04:31Two
04:33Three
04:33Let me write this down
04:34Hold on
04:34Two
04:35I'll get
04:35One
04:36Two
04:37Three
04:37Four
04:39Yeah
04:40Five
04:41Six
04:42Seven
04:42All right, I got the last one too
04:44It's another unsolved mystery
04:46Help me
04:47I'll call him
04:48But if Banking couldn't do anything about it
04:50I doubt that I can even though I'm a ghost
04:53Get a whore of boots on
04:55Sucks to get old
04:58Oh my god
04:59That story just made me feel really bad
05:02The clock on her nightstand was the size of a billboard
05:06It really was
05:07You could get radiation poison
05:08I think so
05:09Like I could see it was 1104 if that was three miles away
05:13It lights up her whole house
05:14She had all of her food all out on her counter
05:17So she just gets right there
05:19Easy access
05:19Easy access
05:21No region
05:22No
05:22I can't reach
05:24Yeah, they were big buttons on her phone
05:27Oh man
05:28And they were like
05:29Can you show us how to use your phone?
05:31And she was like
05:31What?
05:31You do
05:32You walk over
05:35You pick it up
05:36Hello
05:37Hello
