Have you tried getting in touch with their NOC yet? They're one of the most responsive in the industry.

hi. relatively new cogent customer. is what i've stated in my subject line kinda standard fare with them?
i've discovered that when i advertise a /24 from inside a larger /22 to XO, (who peers with cogent), and then pull the /24 some time later, that cogent holds onto the /24 and then bounces packets around in their network a bunch of times for upwards of 8-10 minutes until they finally yank it. this effectively blackholes traffic to my /24 for anyone that is using a path thru cogent.

it's been a bit of a frustrating experience talking to their noc to demonstrate it, but i'm able to duplicate it on demand. even pushing routes using their communities to offload the circuit takes forever to propagate even on their own looking-glasses.
thx
