Autodesk assured us that those with perpetual licenses would always be able to renew them as long as there was no lapse- Then - what do you know- they did everything they could to obfuscate payment of the annual fee so to ensure that these lapsed. First, no email as in past years, forewarning of payment being due, then when you try to pay, they provide no dialogue box that allows access to the payment system. It stinks of restrictive trade practices. I have been trying to get their co-operation for 4 days now, to make my payment and they just continue to run down the clock - giving me nothing but case numbers, until lapse day passes.
