Customer Slackness wasn't the case, my new ISP diagnosed the old one as
recalcitrant..but I thought we had worked through the DNS stuff only to
be surprised a year later (quite by accident) that there were still
problems.
I should say, that the ownership of my original ISP had changed several
times. It was only that I knew of the connection between the name of my
friends ISP and my original ISP that I could diagnose the problem.
Maybe in your case the DNS servers did once belong to the a different ISP.
But go for technical resolution over a law suit every time. Though when
I was trying to resolve my problems I felt it would be good to know what
the escalation/resolution process was TIO? AUDA? Trade practices as
suggested by Brendan.
