I'm looking for advice on how to deal with a US ISP (names withheld to
protect the guilty) which seems to repeatedly fat-finger our IP space
into their BGP announcements, and then gives us the run-around when we
call them on the phone, since we're not their clients...
------------------------------------------


Talk to their upstream(s) and ask them to filter the ISP properly.  Show the upstreams evidence of the ISPs wrongful announcements from router commands, bgplay or other tools.
