Obviously, in a healthy market another, and maybe more effective, option is to get another ISP. However, not all markets are healthy and too frequently users have only one realistic option for an ISP, especially in rural areas. I think it is important that if a user requests a SWIP from an ISP, and they not given the SWIP, this should be at very least a technical violation of ARIN policy. Is ARIN going to revoke an ISP's address space because of a single complaint from a user in this regard, of course not, but I would expect ARIN to intercede with an ISP on behalf of the user. However, if there are repeated issues, especially large numbers of them, and if there are other policy violations too, then I would expect harsher actions by ARIN eventually.
