Why should they talk to you? Do you pay them a service fee?
Their customer has instructed Barrnet NOC and staff to treat me as a consultant/employee of the customer authorized to speak for them. (4 month open ticket. Problem duplicated at will. Large packet loss. inexcusable.) ...
I certainly see no reason why I should do this work for you.
Fair enough... Do no work for other than your customers. This isn't Atlas Shrugged. If I need something from you I'll get one of your customers to sign off on it, or I'm just another leech.
