As far as I'm aware there's no legal requirement for such a thing, though this may vary by region. Even so, it's pretty crappy customer service not to.
Here's a secret: In a lot of places if you're calling in and you ask for a manager you'll just get passed to a new rep (who may or may not pretend to be a manager -- policies vary). I've worked for two separate companies that did this -- one was a call centre contracted by one of the major Canadian ISPs.
