I just got a piece of software authorized from Schneider.
They refused to authorize it under the end user's name because I was unable to give them specific info on the end user, so I was forced to use the OEM's particulars just to get the secret code.
They require the following information or they will not give you the secret code:
contact name
company name
address
phone number
fax number
email address
They do not seem to have any mechanism to deal with cases where an OEM or integrator is sending something through several other hands to an end user they do not know a whole lot about, or if the end user does not have an email address for instance.
What do you want to bet that MS starts asking for this type of information in the future and will only give you the secret code if you give them this type of info?
