Hi there,
Casting a large net here ... any Ops on this list that has an already =20
established interconnect or resell services agreement with the folling =20
CLECs? Jackson, MO is apparently a black hole and I can't get any =20
ratecenters for LNP with Level3/GBLX/Paetec, so our normal SIP =20
Origination channels are no good.
Here are the companies that apparently can handle LNP and Originate =20
for Jackson.
** SBC/AT&T - While we can get PRIs and/or their IP Flex, they won't =20
allow us to port numbers in that aren't ours - ie. we can't become a =20
reseller.
** Charter Fiberlink - Not getting anywhere with them. No good sales =20
contact info that has a clue. Anyone have a good sales contact?
** Big River Telephone - initially sounded interested in selling us =20
their services, but won't return my follow up calls. Maybe we too =20
small of a fish or maybe they dont like the competition?
** Teleport Communications Group - Not getting anywhere with them. No =20
good sales contact info that has a clue. Anyone have a good sales =20
contact?
What we need ... to be able to LNP 573-204 and 573-243 and have the =20
inbound calls come to us, either via SIP or a NxPRI there at our =20
remote POP in Jackson.
To start, we're looking to LNP about 300 to 400 numbers and have about =20
50 concurrent calls. This will be ramping up ...
I would appreciate any and all replies off-list please. Thanks!
