How should those of us receiving the 401/601 errors proceed?

4 hours? I thought I had it bad with 2 and a half just to get a copy/paste before they left.

So far the only work around that seems to work for people are those ultimate gaming cards. It sucks, but it's a temporary solution until SE figures out what's going on.

Only issue is, this isnt worth it for people who wants the 180days subscription.
