Is there a C&W customer out there who can get his/her SLA easily and find 
out what kind of service credits are allowed under this type of situation?

If the answer is not "zero", that might limit future such actions on C&W's 
part - or at least push them not to do this again.  If the answer is zero, 
well, what is to stop them from de-peering other networks?

Then again, if the answer is "zero", it might have a negative impact on 
their sales. :)
