Have you clearly labeled subnets as "broadband connectivity" in arin/ripe
dbs?
I had this issue with amazon and was able to get them to remove the subnets
that were listed as
as being used for broadband  while leaving cloud/datacenter subnets blocked
You need to open the ticket clearly stating the fact that they are
broadband subnets and listed as such in the RIR db. I attached copy and
links to the allocations.
