I assume that the ISP sometimes sends 'username:' and sometimes 'login:'?
Try a script that expects just ':' instead of 'name:' or 'ogin:'.

The problem is probably with pppd, as pon is just
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd call ${1:-provider}
To test this try typing
/usr/sbin/pppd call provider_name
where 'provider_name' is the name you've given the connection that is
giving you trouble.

I've never heard of it before (and as pppconfig author and maintainer I
would). Please send me copies of the offending provider files.
