Hi, I've run into this. Basicly I wrote support. I explained the situation. Then I told them I wasn't getting enough out of the service to justify the grief and they could either enable my account or close it, whichever suited them best and let me know when it was done.
My account was enable in a day or two. I'd like to tell you that was the end of that, but I think my ISP has some strange routing issues so it puts me in Montreal occasionally and off we go again. I really should just get rid of it altogether.
