Has anyone else received a phone call from a UUnet salesman out of the blue? It appears that he used the Boardwatch magazine, because he quoted me some information out of it about my company.
Funny you should mention this. I have a 45MB/s feed to UUNet in Dallas, and have had for years. Probably a year ago I had a UUNet salesman call me out of the blue saying he was now responsible for my account, and I should be talking to him for all of my UUNet related business. However, according to WorldCom, and more specifically my WorldCom sales rep, I was still supposed to go through WorldCom for my UUNet dealings. Can you say comi$$ion? About two months back, I got a flyer from UUNet, with a new person claiming to be my sales rep. Again, the WorldCom rep I have states she should be our primary contact for UUNet business. Personally, I think the UUNet feed I have is excellent, but it would be nice to see a bit more UUNet-WorldCom coordination. It's leaving those of us in the customer community confused.
