Gee, and here I was thinking you were doing a talk on how to destroy

Has anyone else here had problems with NZ ISP abuse complaint responses
?
mainly in response to SPAM reports where they refuse to do anything
until
they get blacklisted but also covering network abuse (DOS type
scenario's
and the like) ?
Yep, although in most cases it appears to be from a lack of organisation
in getting the complaints to the right person rather than a systemic
neglect of the issue. Recently I tried for 2 weeks through proper
channels to get an obviously infected ADSL customer disabled and
informed of their problem, to no avail, and culminating in the Helpdesk
telling me that the Abuse people only worked form midnight to 8am a
couple of days a week!!!!
Obviously what he meant was that the person that dealt with it in the
NOC was next rostered on for a midnight to 8am shift, but it's NOT what
he said.
Anyway, I posted the details on this list and someone from the
appropriate ISP saw it and had the issue resolved in 30 minutes.
But there should be some sort of internally monitored helpdesk with
escalation for complaints like that - I know of a number of (admittedly
corporate and not cheap - HEAT and Magic spring to mind) that do this
sort of thing very well).
Out of interest, are any ISP reps here prepared to admit how they track
issues, specifically something like complaints to abuse(a)isp.co.nz where
there could be a lot of incoming jobs?

I've found the same thing with Paradise/Telstra Clear's responses.

Haven't seen any yet and zone-h showed only a slight increase before the
DNOS attack clogged their 100mb totally. The originator runs a
'brazilian' site based out of the US, and his/her email is from
somewhere in France. The Estonian link is for the time of the challenge
and the time is according to zone-h which is estonian (Tallin)
;-)  Just showing I have done my homework before putting on the makeup
and  getting demolished by Hoskin and Hawkesbury.
