 | New Edge plays dirty I've been watching this play out for a while. The president of BritSys has publicly stated that New Edge offered very liberal credit terms to get a lot of ISP's signed up and reselling their service. They would offer up to 90+ terms, so as to let the ISP's grow their business while still offering support. This "partnership" was taken advantage of by a number of ISP's like and including BritSys. Then, suddenly, New Edge altered their credit agreement, demanding that those ISP's who were using their previously liberal credit terms pay up, and do so to current and do so immediately. New Edge refused any and all attempts to negotiate a repayment arrangement that didn't cut off the resellers.
This, of course, was a very nice way of getting ISP's to expend large amounts of marketing money, collect the money for the services, and then, after yanking the rug out from under the resellers, getting all the customers for themselves. Or, at least that's my take on it.
Of course, there's always 2 sides to every story... But I have little reason to believe BritSys's claims... It just makes too much sense.
I was about to do business with New Edge myself... But since I don't like wholesale screwing, I guess I'll find someone else to do business with. | |  | It is funny how when things like this happen there are so many clueless people here to offer their opinions. I think before forming an opinion it is better to call both parties, then add both stories together and there is the real answer. | |  | Averaging the differences isn't going to find the truth at all.
The truth is whatever it is. Trouble is, you don't know if either side tells it or not. "Averaging" gets you NOT the truth, regardless. | | |
