Sigh. Having an ASN assigned involves exchange of signed contracts between sponsoring LIR and end-user. These, as well as company registration papers or passport copies(!) have to be approved by the NCC before assignment takes place. Exactly *what* purpose would a phone call or fax (why not TELEX if we're doing retro tech?) serve?
