The point is that he seemed to use an SSL port and he apparently found
using SSL did not work. So was something else providing the SSL (or other
encryption) or was the provider all fooed up?

Well that depends.
If its clear text and you have the right flags set it will show you all of the
raw data.
Wireshark can in many cases decode it further.
However if it ssl/tls encrypted there is a tool much to most infosec peoples
dismay (and joy when its useful ) called ssldump that can take a tcpdump that
captures the full conversation and decode it.
But that answered is no not out of the box.
