Hi Graham, Maybe your ASN is not a virgin ASN, someone used it.
You should notify every object's former owner or the current maintainer to remove it, or contact RADb or ARIN to help you remove them. But I think that RADb was easier to use than ARIN before, the current version of RADb is not user-friendly.

While doing this I was using the nlnog IRR explorer website and found that a company that I peer with on a public exchange has my ASN listed in an as-macro that they control. The way the as-macro is named I am reasonably confident that they aren't using it for transit related activity, rather they are likely using it for controlling peering activity and filtering on the IX in question. Part of me is okay with this, but given that I've never seen this behavior from any other provider on the three reasonably large exchanges that we participate on I am curious what the community thinks about this. Is this uncommon but acceptable in the eyes of community? Thanks, Graham
