How long would you typically expect a route change request to get processed?

I submitted a ticket 9 days ago about the good route (130ms) to login.worldoftanks.asia, changing to the not so good route (180ms).
Yesterday, it went downhill even further to the bad route (230ms).

I have been running WTFast since I noticed the initial route change, and it has managed to keep a stable ping of ~130ms, indicating that the good route must be out there somewhere.

When I was with TCL/Vodafone, this type of request would typically take less than 1 day. So, what's up?

pchs: it does seem coincidental that they have just sold their IRU to Vocus and then this happens, presumably this does point to Spark now having limited capacity on this route and are now only allowing certain traffic over it. 
Can't be sure about voice, but they don't have any GGI (i.e. Internet) traffic over it anymore, their Perth border phbr2.global-gateway.net.nz no longer exists.

GGI used to peer with (most also hold IRUs on that segment of SMW3) Most SEA gaming traffic traversed the first two networks:
Starhub (singapore)
Singtel (singapore)
China Unicom (mainland china via hk)
Twgate (taiwan chunghwa enterprise)
CAT Telecom (thailand)
PLDT (philippines)
KDDI (japan)

SMW3 is 2.4 Gb SDH on that segment, can't do 10G so wouldn't say it's high capacity.
