Much thanks to all who responded. I seemed to get a pretty consistent response from everybody who replied: Your Milage May Vary. Some people had had no problem with getting renumbering time, some people had had tons of problems. Some people said MCI had been very reasonable, some said that CW changed their policies. At any rate, once I knew I wasn't being that unrealistic, I emailed the IP allocation people at MCI, and got this response (which they asked me to post back to this list): > Scott, > > This is the correct email address for such requests.

(I have omitted the name and telephone number of the technician that sent this response). So it sounds like our customer just talked to a butthead salesperson who didn't want them to know what they could do. Thanks again, --------Scott.
