Have someone establish the equivalent of a credit-bureau for outages.
When dirty laundry becomes available - even if for a fee -
it comes to their advantage to disclose it all.
A black mark in your records saying "Outage occurred - reported
by 200 ISPs, no explanation given" reads far worse than
"A bug in the roto-rooter 20000 caused the loss of all frame
connections." "Followup: Bug fixed, problem should not recur."
