Yeah,
Def. more specifics if you can.     I'm assuming the space is definitely PI space?

Depending on the size of the subnets you could always try advertising more
specific routes than the hostile ISP, of course if they are on this list
they might cotton onto it. ;)

Ok briefly,

A customer of ours is multi-homed.

There has been a breakdown in the relationship with one of their suppliers
due to a billing dispute and their interconnection has been shut down.

This I do not have a problem with - its up to them to resolve it.

But, due to my customer having another upstream, this supplier is
announcing some of my customers ranges into their upstream (Pacnet) and
Pipe peering - essentially poisoning their routing and damage their
ability to function.

The supplier never previously announced the ranges as they were announced
by my customers routers, so they've maliciously started announcing them.

This, in my opinion is equivalent to denial-of-service due to a commercial
dispute.

My next steps are to contact their upstreams and inform them the provider
does not have the permission to announce these ranges and to please stop
them announcing them.  I will then contact Pipe to have them do the same.

Anyone have any other ideas?
