Speakout

Company keeps on billing

I recently canceled my services with a cable/satellite service provider. This was on Oct. 15. I called them and told them to send me a final bill, as of that date. Which is acceptable I thought. I was told they couldn’t do that, they would have to bill me through the end of my billing cycle, which ended on Nov. 4. In other words, these companies want to bill you for three weeks of service they are not providing. Now when did that become legal?

Why is city car at school?

Why is there a code enforcement City of Sikeston car at the Fifth and Sixth Grade Center every day using city car, city gas and city time? Think about it.

Protest wasn’t peaceful

I am reading the Friday, Oct. 22 Speakout, and it says give them recognition. A handful of SHS students who courageously protested last year’s pre-presidential election peacefully. Well I hate to say this, but it wasn’t peaceful. They screamed out at us obscenities. If that’s peaceful then that is ridiculous.

Lighting used taxpayer money

The lighting improvements for Dancler Field were a budgeted item in the FY22 budget. Yes, they were budgeted using Sikeston taxpayer’s money.
