up getting only one /24. Then another upstream provider, quite large, forced another /24 upon us. When we stated we didn't need/want it, they said they could take it back but it was not standard practice; all DS3 customers get a /24. Anyway... Think of all the other companies out there who get treated like this?
Yes, it does seem like ARIN doesn't treat everyone the same. I had the same experience. At the same time ARIN is telling me have to to divide my customers up into /27's or ARIN won't give me any more space, a very large upstream provider was making me take a minimum of a /24 for every connection whether I needed it or not. But I couldn't aggregate the /24 into anything.
