We were talking to AT&T once about using them for last-mile in their territories. The first pricing we got was astronomical. One we recovered from the shock and scrolled down, we saw all the 98%discount this, 95% discount that tables, which after being applied brought them into the ballpark. I seem to remember the initial price being their tariff rate. Verizon may be playing the same games. On Wed, Mar 16, 2016 at 4:48 PM, David Hubbard < dhubbard@dino.hostasaurus.com> wrote:
Curious if anyone has had similar experience; looking for a 10gig transit circuit at a colo, contacted VZ as they’re on net in the facility, quoted me an astronomical amount at 10-20x going rates these days. I’m curious if I just happened across a bad rep and should dig further, or that’s par for the course? Rep was comfortable talking about BGP, v4/v6, etc. so I felt like I was talking to the right person until I saw the price lol.
Thanks,
