I know this is a late entry. I am a former McLead employee. Because of the flooding in Cedar Rapids, I wanted to check on the corporate office. Cassandra….file with your state’s attorney general. They should not be allowed to hold your number!

McCloud ihas my business phone number and refuses to export it to ATT in Chicago, Thus doing irreparable harm to my 8 year old business.

Can anyone tell me how to force them to release a number they are not using.

The facts that we see daily in the news is that Telecom is going thru further consolidation and that the only survivors will have signicant size and depth.

I left 21 years in Corporate Telecom to become a independant broker for 15 Telco's-Customers need someone on their side to help them manage

If you want true objectivity call Bulldog Communications who represents 15 Telecom firms from C-Lecs to I-Lecs in the Northwest.

This last guy must have not read the article very well. They specifically mentioned XO as another company that in the same kind of trouble. If you really want to check out a good telecom look at Eschelon. Yah, I’m a rep., but they went public in August, really are cash flow positive and recently acquired ATI and Oregon Telecom, the stock just got upgraded. I’m glad to work there. Going on 4 years now, I bet that guy doesn’t even work there anymore… nope I just tried. Really call me 801-506-7273. I’m not going anywhere.

I am willing to help any company looking to switch from McLeod services. XO is a nationwide provider of voice, internet, and long distance services. We are Tier One and have a similar product set to AT&T. Most importantly, we are a cash flow positive company. I have helped several companies transition from McLeod services. you may contact me at 612-312-1608.

I was laid off by McLeodUSA last year here in La. The last two employee’s in La. were laid off about a month ago. McLeodUSA is trying to get rid of everything they have in La. and maybe Texas too. Good riddens!

We are a small company with about 100 phones. we have been using a McLeod T1 for about two years for dial tone and long distance. McLeod’s quality and service have been excellent. I am hoping they survive with minimal changes.

I have some startling inside info which may be wrong ( I am hoping ) but it comes from a very reliable source. It looks like the deathwatch may be premature. Back with more later

Albuquerque office empty, closed, phone not in service “at this time”. No warning no notice just gone.

No service from my ISP - McLeod - again and with no explanation at all. I’ve allowed, since 1996, my business to remain with a company that can no longer maintain consistent, let alone somewhat frequent, access. This company once held so much promise but their management now seems most interested in misleading the very people who remained while contining to believe in McLeod’s mission.
