Remember, what you perceive to be an ignorant attitude could be directly
related to a couple of factors:

1. Uninformed 1st level support
2. NDAs. Negotiations could be in progress, but are not for public record.
 
I doubt that either of the network providers are completely ignoring the
case, they just may not be able to communicate the time frame or actual fix
for the problem.

Of course, I could be mistaken.
