I've been in a situation where we had to have the phone company come in with
a tester called a T-berd, and do a test where they set one end of the WAN
connection to loop back, and then flood the other side with bit patterns
that take up the whole bandwidth, and then keep track of errors. Kind of
extreme, but it's conclusive.

Something you may want to do is get WAN killer.

http://solarwinds.net/Tools/Miscellaneous/WAN%20Killer/ and do a similar
test yourself.
I try to get a real test for every new circuit I get.

As for CIR, call up their tech support, give them your circuit number and
ask for the port and CIR speeds.  That'l catch paperwork errors.
