I would actually say the opposite. It took me 5 years to do a name transfer (The original company had been dissolved for several years), I had all of the appropriate info and they would still not do it, finally I started making a big fuss about it and then it was done within 24 hours. I have been dealing with a IP block transfer for several months now as well. What I have found is that you have to find the right person via these support tickets.... I am hoping I am on my last support ticket to getting these blocks transferred correctly.
