I'm currently locked out of my energy provider's site because they won't
let me use a + in an email address (however the previous site - run by a
different company that got taken over - did allow this, so I am already
registered with an email they consider illegal). In this case its given
me the final impetus to take my business elsewhere so I'm transferring
out.
