Hello Jory - Matt, Thank you for the kind words Jory and the referral Matt.
I'm only interjecting here just to clarify that nearly every opportunity presented to BelWave has to be evaluated on a case by case basis. In this particular case there were several criteria that dictated the price per MB. Certainly we can offer better per MB pricing, but that comes with different terms. With the constraints we had to work with I am extremely confident there is not a better deal available that will offer a comparable level of service. Obviously I can't go into the details, but we're confident we met every requirement requested for the opportunity to earn the business. More importantly the continued business and ongoing relationship beyond this short term deal. We appreciate the opportunity and look forward to working with WCCS.

I have talked with them and they seem like good people. I will sign a contract with them this week I hope. I was just wanting to find a better price per meg but it does not look like it will happen.
