Well, shucks guys - Ascend HAS a nifty "site id" or "customer id" or some such thing that allows you to give them a simple number up front, and avoid the game of 20 questions. I dunno what it is called, but my number is "37229", and it identifies me to Ascend every time. Try it - tell them you are "site number 37229" and they will say "How may I help you, Dr. Fischer?" in less than 10 seconds. THEN you can explain to them that you really are not me, but that you would like to know what YOUR secret number is. Ascend may in fact have a lousy database, but I would say that it is quicker/easier to get through to an Ascend tech than it is to get through to a (for example) Cisco tech.
