Principis has gotten into the magic business.

Submit for continuous balance check and renewal, and wait 4 days with no response, and... presto the merchant is renewed but doesn't exist in their system!!!

How were they renewed you wonder?!

Well you have to wait on hold for 9 minutes (and counting...) to find that out. But they'll be happy to tell you that they don't need your permission to renew or go through you as the sales agent whatsoever and you will have no say in the rate.

Damn. Now I have to organize my Principis UCC's to the top and go at it....
