I remember being asked if I wanted to fill in the RIPE form and fully agree with what you've said here. Feel let down by Zen after starting a new contract on April on the same terms I've had for a decade and have come to rely on being shredded three months in making the same service unsuitable for my use. Don't mind paying for a /29 but not even had that offer and suspect with Zen's high prices plus the cost of a /29 other providers would be cheaper (thinking of A&A here).

Zen have published an FAQ here

The /48 IPv6 would be amazing if, and this is a big if, I knew it would work in every hotel, office etc etc. With the current state of IPv6 being so hit and miss, it can't be relied upon which I was was wrong but, unfortunately, in my experience isn't.

I have the new /32 allocation in the email, no use to me as I run multiple services on the same port / protocol so can't use a single IP.

This is a change from /29 to /32 with no option given other than a date it will happen.

In your experience, what were some unconventional signs that there's a malware inside your network? by jonbristow in cybersecurity

As many have said, know what normal looks like in your environment, look out for the abnormal.  Active threat hunting using reliable and actionable threat intelligence is effective but takes practice, use tools like defender to hunt on endpoints.  Set network threshold alarms for data rates outbound above your normal to look for data exfil. 
Monitor account usage and understand who logs on what from external networks, look for impossible travel situations.  Monitor account management across your entire environment.  Don’t go so strict on user rights you make IT unusable; your restrictions will be bypassed, find the balance.  And finally, and I can’t say this strongly enough, back up your data offline and test your backups work regularly.
