You can DM @allthemtings to get some stocks.
Are you already a client? if so you can ticket billing and Akash will get you going.

Moved thread from Service Transfers to Requests
why? they do similar strategy as Apple used to do - fake shortage of stock, shop around and get better service elsewehre!
@Francisco who is your upstream in CH?
Got test ip?
@apollo15 hurricane and cogent, see e.g. https://bgp.tools/prefix/107.189.28.0/23
(plus the "you do not want to name them" for anycast via probalby fra, ams or lon, not sure atm where that upstream still has pops, but they are declining further and further)
Anycast: https://bgp.tools/prefix/198.251.86.0/24#connectivity
I'm not sure if "connectivity" is the right word anymore...
so,Switzerland is DMCA free like LUX？
We colocatate in NTS. We then pull both Cogent & Hurricane.
Francisco
That range is incorrect on Anycast since its using purely Path and their network is a choice. Its pending a fix.
For now i'd likely ping each location on its own. (ping.pe) and work from there. Hurricane is on ~every IX, and since we're using HE transit, every IX has our routes.
Francisco
When there's capacity, Akash posts it, or people can ticket. He's (obviously) been super busy the past few weeks so he doesn't do public releases as much.
You'll want to check via https://my.frantech.ca in most cases, or, just ticket and we'll set you up directly.
Francisco
Please tell me you are looking into GSL or anything that is not P...n.. as a replacement for your anycast offerings (even if that would infer an ip change), currently https://bgp.tools/prefix/198.251.90.0/24#connectivity shows also P as upstream only. I mean, even anycast on HE or Cogent would be more useful than the current situation.
But atm e.g. ASH to anycast is 125ms [sic] with buyvm anycast nodes in nyc|las|ch but ASH routing via chicago (gtt->p handshake) and up from 40ms to 125ms today (maybe since a lot longer already I dare to look into the routings anymore). And we all know that e.g. ASH to your NYC DC via the HE/Cogent is like <10ms.
We own the ips so there would be no ip change
it would just… start sucking a whole lot less 
I’ll ride the bosses ass some about it this week. We were chatting last week about it and Miami.
Francisco
Ah, apologies, I got it from the "Luxembourg" (now Switzerland, of course!) looking glass, which claims that
198.251.86.22is the test anycast IP.That’s true! But that rides on path.
The reason it’s on path is so we could sell people filtering if they needed/wanted it without having to waste as many ips, or forcing renumbers.
Francisco
That’s not true, since IPv4 addresses aren’t technically your property. My current provider hasn’t changed my IPv4 address in the last 10 years.
Okay, we can be pedantic and say that the IPs are allocated to ARIN-SYNDI-5 rather than being owned -- but I think functionally it's the same thing. The point remains though: the routing can be changed via BGP without renumbering.
