Don't have any experience with that but I would assume you would get it. I can't see why not.

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Many people have that. I don't know if there is anything to do besides send them an email and wait 7-14 days for them to unlock the account.

I know someone that it wasn't their first time using it and it was still a problem. For the recorded he used someone else's mpx account and sent an email to them complaining that he lost out on the miles he should've earned (it was 1k miles) and they gave him 1500 miles.
