urlhasbeenblocked cancelled my account and kept the money inside it.

I bought $150 of stuff from one of urlhasbeenblocked affiliates. The credit never showed up after 3 weeks. I emailed them and got a nice, cheery message back saying they'd contact the retailer and I'd hear back within 90 days. Again, I never heard back. So I emailed them again. I get the following e-mail with no explanation whatsoever:

This is interesting to me, because my husband and I had separate urlhasbeenblocked accounts (even though we sometimes use the same email). But apparently, urlhasbeenblocked has considered that a violation worthy of shutting down our accounts and keeping the funds inside.

My husband had been using urlhasbeenblocked about 10 years, and I had just signed on. The money inside my account was less than $10, but I am posting this in case anyone else with deeper pockets wants to avoid this happening to them without warning or explanation. Be careful.
