There are almost no NODE_BLOOM supporting bloom-off nodes on the
network currently. So, while supporting this is important, I am
doubtful that its the current problem you've suffered.
There are a great many fake nodes which appear to exist purely to
monitor transactions. Many do not implement enough of the protocol to
support scanning or transaction relay. (and, in fact, relaying
transactions would make monitoring less effective).
You can't count on peers on a peer to peer network to be honest and
cooperative. Implementations need to work hard to be robust to abusive
peers. Unfortunately, the design of the bloom filtering is such that
it isn't always easy (or even possible) to be robust.
