You can get the PA subnet reallocated to you as a customer of a LIR
without additional cost.

Examples:
ARIN: http://whois.arin.net/rest/net/NET-74-120-15-144-1/pft
RIPE: http://www.db.ripe.net/whois?searchtext=79.140.39.227

For ARIN, you have to convince your ISP to submit a reallocation
request. The process can be eased as follows: Go to arin.net, create
your own POC records and ORG ID. I have attached a template I used to
get an IP range reassigned to my OrgID TORSE and attach handle
TAD54-ARIN for abuse and TORSE-ARIN for tech.

All the ISP has to do is fill out points 20 to 23 with info about the
subnet, copy and paste the text-based template into the body of an
e-mail and send to hostmaster at arin.net with the subject line "REASSIGN
DETAILED".
The original form including more comments is at

I am not sure how it works for RIPE, but as you can see from the example
above, it can be done.
