Well, I wouldnt have such a disheartened attitude if they would have been specific or given time to comply. I find listing an entire /17 without cause or a report to back it up an unjust action. I have contacted them through multiple mediums and have found no response. So if someone has had better luck I want to know if I am doing something wrong. I have also been absolutely pleasant with them. My frustration grows as I am ignored. Every network deals with bad apples I dont understand why our good standing customers must also suffer these consequences.

No matter who you deal with, you will get much further with a good humble attitude rather than blame.
It is my experience that if they list more than a very specific range of IP addresses on your network, you have a real problem. If you have a spammer at the top and bottom of a CIDR block then they may list the range, but I have had them lost two small ranges in the same /24 before... so I know they have very good specificity.
I am sorry I can not offer you any specific steps or contact information to help you expedite the resolution, but I hope you will find some value in this advice.
Perhaps, if your network is small and you control all your mail servers and you really are clean, you can configure thrm to relay through a smart host or SendGrid or etc.
Good luck, Mike

Hello All,
SpamHaus has done us the favor of blacklisting all of our prefixes due to the issues with handful of IPs from customers we have removed from our network.
They are now being unresponsive on helping us get these listings removed and we have a lot of legitimate customers who are no longer able to send email.
If anyone has any advice on how to deal with these people. Please let me know here or off list.
Thanks!
