The long story as best I can remember the facts and figures.
We were ctivating for worldcom and they were paying about 350.00 per activation. ATT, Verison and Cingular weren't paying anywhere near that but gradually upped their offers beyond what was resonable (in their mind) because worldcom was taking all of the business. Obviously, being who we are, we poured worldcom all the activations they could handle growing to their 3rd or 4th largest agent behind radio shack, best buy, and someone else who I can't remember.
Then one day we got a call saying stop. Obviously, we reached out to the other carriers but once worldcom was out of the game, the other companies went back to paying next to nothing and didn't want to have a national distributer.
The business simply went away, worldcom stiffed us for the last 1.5 million dollar check and another several ghundred thousand in residuals.
We shrugged it off, sold the domains, and moved on.
