Most telecom providers don't *have* status pages, for the same reason
that most telecom problem tickets "mysteriously" clear: they have to
report their problem metrics to the government, and if they don't admit
to the problem, it makes their numbers look better.
"The trouble's leaving here fine!"
I do have a reasonably large list of other types of status pages
collected here: http://www.microsys.us/status
Any contributions from other people's crib notes won't go amiss...
