Well, had a reply from .gov and it is in effect using the Nuremberg excuse - as in we are an agency of Gov. but not responsible for its policy. Only following orders, eh?

Almost certain that I won't renew with my current provider, it is small and that is not without risk. If it is the case that the expenses fiddlers are behind this harassment then most if not all providers will likely be deploying the same excuse. But if harassment is the name of the game I would prefer to suffer it from one of the bigger providers and benefit from less risk of having to deal with a forced switch from a bust company - I've been there and it is not without hassle or cost.
