UUNET service

Thanks for all the 'wonderful' input. I guess most of you feel that the
attitude of UUNET is appropriate. When I read responses on NANOG I am
utterly surprised by the total lack of professionalism. I have always
prided myself on my education and experience and my Professional
attitude towards my peers. I guess I am just being naive.

I do agree that the problem is with one of UUNET's customers. I,
however, think that UUNET should proactively call there customer to
resolve network issues. 

When I purchase services from a network provider one of my conditions is
that they monitor my connection to them and report to me issues that
could affect my connection. In fact I feel that they should notify me of
problems that persist longer than five minutes. Otherwise my business is
affected in an adverse way.

Therefore, I feel that they should simply have asked who the problem was
with. I would have told them and sent them a traceroute (I feel that
more info is better info, my opinion, take it with a grain of salt if
you wish.) and they simply would have said 'thank you'.

Subject: UUNET service

I tried to notify UUNET at their 800-900-0241 number that there was a
loop in their network. They told me that if I didn’t have an account
with them they were not interested in any information that I may have
had for them. I stated that I was just calling so that they could pass
the information onto an engineer. He repeated himself saying if you do
not have an account with us I will not do anything with the information.
I guess they think they run the internet and us small ISPs couldn’t
possibly know anything...


In case someone at UUNET reads this here is the traceroute.
