Sorry to open up another thread about that. I just wanted to share the link for filing a online complaint about the "business practice" of istockphoto online - no further discussion beyond that and how to get through the process.
For the general discussion please see this thread:
http://www.microstockgroup.com/istockphoto-com/hold-on-to-your-wallets!-%27there-are-irregularities-with-october%27s-pp-royalties%27/msg366878/?topicseen#new

It is straight forward. You do not need to be a resident of Canada. You do not need a lawyer. It is free.
