Based on my past experiences with Bell I would find it highly optimisitic 
if it worked that smoothly.

Bell once killed our phone line for a week when they deprovisioned our DSL 
when the ISP went out of business.  They even tried to deny it was their 
fault until I pointed out that I found that we lacked dialtone less than 
two hours after the DSL went offline.
