Having an issue with IRR data/leased space

Dealing with these outsourced NOC reps isn't always the greatest.

Situation: Leasing a /24 block through provider A and announcing it via provider B for multihomed purposes. Certain ASNs won't accept my announcement as I don't have a route object. I can't create a route object as I'm leasing the space from the provider and it's not mine. This prevents certain ASNs route filters from being updated.

Provider A in this example is Cogent who use RWHOIS, and not SWIP, for delegation data. In addition, their route object is for an entire /8 and not my /24.

Anyone know how to navigate this and get my announcement accepted?
