Cogent getting involved in absolutely obnoxious and shady sales tactics
that they'll seemingly never address or do anything about? Why I never

So we just got an email from cogent, we have told them time and time
again to stop calling and stop emailing. We tell them are good on
bandwidth and we don’t need any of their services.. They then sent us
a e-mail stating that they saw us coming though one of their customers
networks from us, and figured we would want to buy direct instead of
going though one of their customers. Yes COGENT stated this; well at
least one of their sales reps. Sounds underhanded, shady, and
unethical to me. Just figured I would post about it; see if I am
making a mountain out of a mole hill 😊
Here is the e-mail:
//
/"Hey (redacted) ,/
/Maybe there is a misunderstanding. (ISP’s name removed) is a cogent
customer who we provide upstream to./
/My initial inquiry was to see if it makes sense for Link Technologies
to be utilizing our network instead of through (ISP’s name removed).
That way we could be a direct network for you./
/Would that be at all something that interests you?/
