I hate to break it to you, but either for lack of reading comprehension<br>
skills, or deliberately, you seem to be failing to notice that you are<br>
being accused of being a scammer, and failing to establish credibility<br>
in this community.<br>
<br>
Things that don't augment your credibility:<br>
<br>
- Your web site is full of orthographic errors, arbitrary noun<br>
capitalisation techniques, and awkward, naive turns of phrase.<br>
<br>
- It is also characterised by a conspicuous absence of any information<br>
related to your company, any technical details of your offering, or any<br>
clear and distinct avenue for customer service or sales inquiries other<br>
than a "contact us" form.<br>
<br>
- Complete lack of any established and asserted corporate identity.<br>
<br>
- Complete lack of any information as to your sign-up and provisioning<br>
process.<br>
<br>
- The phraseology of most artifacts of your web site sounds a lot like<br>
something from Borat. Or worse, a pompous, gassy caricature thereof.<br>
This is epitomised by things like:<br>
<br>
"You no longer need to buy by the T1/E1 or DS3. We provide DID's from<br>
over 2500 US rate centers." ("The T1/E1 or DS3?" "DID's?")<br>
<br>
"We have great plans for DID originations." ("We are make a service<br>
providings - happy time?")<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
Anyway, the point is that there are few things that telecom people are<br>
more afraid of than whimsical, fly-by-night operations with no business<br>
processes, quality control, or reliability in place. However, that is<br>
precisely the impression that information about your operation -- to the<br>
extent that it exists in any manner whatsoever -- conveys.<br>
<br>
If you are actually trying to be a legitimate origination/termination<br>
reseller, you need to clean up your act. Or at the very least, hire<br>
someone who speaks passable English to rewrite your web site.<br>
Personally, I suspect the underlying intentions are far worse than the<br>
result of simple naivete, ignorance, and Philistinism.<br>
