Did you update your whois information to point to the name servers at 
NEWprovider.net?

After this change is made and any cached data expires, the world will 
query them (NEWProvider), with the exception of anyone that uses name 
servers at OLDprovider.net who still thinks they are authoritative for 
your domain.
