How about using Private As and stripping it off (remove-private-as) beyond
your ISP? I have done it for many customers and it seems to work fine.

Hi,
Our provider is advertising out routes for us into a BGP network.
We are using there AS number currently to advertise the routes.
We are currently not using our own as number to advertise the routes but we
have an AS number and are planning to run BGP soon.
In the mean time other downstream providers have spotted this, based on
filters they have and are starting to ask questions why we are NOT using our
own AS number, One provider has refused to accept these routes until they
come from our own as number. In the interim period until we start using our
own as number is there anyway we can work with our provider to prepend our
as number on to there, so other providers will not have an issue and other
new providers will not be aware of this current difficulty.
Kind regards.
Paul.
