We had a problem with cogent about a year ago. Somehow.. cymru was announcing a /32 of ours and black holing it for whatever reason. It was removed but wasn't happy that cogent was allowing cymru to do this sort of action. To this date we do not have a valid reason from cogent on why they allowed this to happen.
