yea it's possible to dissociate ur number from a resseller and immediately use
it with another partner if the former reseller is willing to release ur
number. it's stated on cisco's website (in a pdf document under employer
information). but as scott said i guess open a case with the CCIE
certification support team.they should be helpful
