Greetings All
I think the context of some of the conversation is missing.
BGP can handle any class of address, and in fact the BGP being run on the
net at present (BGP4) is classless. The whole reason for CIDR was that it
was intended to shrink the size of the BGP routing tables. SO them saying

You were talking to a salesman.
Nod your head, have him/her pay for a good lunch; and ask to talk to one
of the engineers.

This is not a company that I would want to do business with. :-)
Maybe it is just me, but if you only have one connection to your ISP, I
don't see any reason for BGP.

Hey folks, I have a quick question regarding BGP. We are looking for an
alternative ISP for our Internet. One company we spoke with that offers a
100MB connection, said that in order to use their services we need to
implement BGP on our Internet route
They may be assuming that you will advertise a small block of the /8 space
(say a /24 or /23 etc) which likely be filtered by various providers. Small
advertisements out of the class C space would not suffer similarily.
