To be fair to Concentric, they do return calls, and getting
to a live person is not that complicated.
Co-ordination with local carriers is an entirely different
story...

Reminds me of Concentric's inane auto-attendant system. I was
trying to reach tech support as my DSL line had gone down
(Covad/Concentric.) Concentric's voice prompt says "To find
out about our technical support please visit our web site
at www.concentric.com." Ahhhhhhhhhhgh! I wrote them and
complained. They apologized. Nothing changed.
