Maybe require something roughly like this in the SLA:
"Customer may notify Provider upon discovery of a network Partition. A
Partition exists when correct BGP routes available via at least 90% of
comparable Internet service providers are absent from Provider's BGP
feed or do not otherwise function. Where such Partition persists for
at least 6 hours from notification, Provider shall make a 100% service
credit starting from notification. Where such Partition persists for
at least 24 hours, Customer may terminate this contract without
penalty until 30 days following the Partition's end."
> Would that get $provider's attention?
No. They'll either agree blindly or consider you a hard case. Either
way it won't change their actual behavior.
