IP Democracy: Navisite Turned Away a Web Hoster Seeking Server

OK, so it turns out that someone else had the same idea -- show up at Navisite's headquarters to retrieve their servers, but Navisite wouldn't let the guy in. That was the word in one of Navisite's many conference calls today, but Navisite personnel are no longer participating in these calls.

In fact, our emails and phone calls have gone unreturned over the past day.

I'm going to call Navisite to let them know I'm coming to Andover to copy our data off the servers (as it turns out, the servers don't technically belong to us.) I'll let you know what they say.

Update: Navisite hung up on me! I called to let someone at the company know we would be showing up in Andover to copy our data off the servers and was transferred to technical support. When I attempted to explain to the man who answered the phone that we are coming to Andover and don't expect to be turned away, he said that Navisite is opening up a new bridge at 1:00 pm and that we should join this conference call instead. When I explained that we had been on these conference calls since Sunday to no avail, he again tried to persuade me to join a conference call. When I interrupted him, he said "let me finish my damn sentence." I asked his name. He hung up on me.

So, it looks like this is really going to happen. We're going to Andover. In true Michael Moore fashion, I'll bring a webcam and post the results here. Hey, I got nothing else to do.
