That tracks with my experience as well with both Verizon and AT&T. Both had old cabinets in facilities at dayjobs. Calling our account reps and calling the numbers listed on/in the cabinets went nowhere. Powering the cabinets off did :)

That’s what we’ve done with Verizon in the past as well. Power off the gear and they will soon show up. In our case they looped the ring in a street vault and took their SONET gear and went home.
