You hope. Took them 4 hours to figure out how to announce routes to us.

No, BGP is a standard configuration and as far as I know, we weren't
charged. I think its time to get the sales rep on the phone and let him
know that the experience has been very ugly compared to Sprint and your
taking quotes to replace your Verio circuit. This should provide leverage
to drop that charge, but your probably too late to get better pricing like
you probably could have.
