This is what I wrote to IStockphoto... My exclusive application has been stuck on pending for days now. How long does the process take? I originally applied on April 26th 2011. It has been way over 48 hours.
(I would like to get my 30% back instead of this 17% I have now. That's why I reapplied)
The reply i got was this...
There is currently a hold on evaluating Exclusivity Applications. The Development Team is doing some maintenance within this area of the site.
You will need to wait until this routine maintenance is finished. After this point in time your Exclusivity Application will be reviewed. Unfortunately I do not have an ETA as to when this will be completed.
I don't understand what that means. Is this normal?

P.S sorry if this is in the wrong thread. Thank you pancaketom you are correct
