In fact, last year I was discussing with USR (Skokie, ILL) not being able to

connect to an early Maestro VFC with my Courier without using S27=48, When

they asked me for the phone number because they would call the BBS themselves.

I told them the number (Brisbane, Australia) and they made more than one call.

(This was to a pirate BBS, mind you)

So you should not be suprised if they do call you.

And when you order a modem on their US Sysop deal, they ask for your BBS number

and a login name/password and do actually login.
