That does make it pretty pointless. I guess the Californian (or US?)
laws Apple are abiding by don't particular cater for that sort of
situation.

Good luck with all the certificate handling stuff :-)

How odd that the answer "because they are in the US" is not the one that
was given.

Might it not be that the fax would in CA law consitute a document that
you had sent them, and in case of litigation between them and you about
your eligibility for the discount, could be shown to constitute fraud on
your part? I don't suggest for a second that it could come to that in
your particular case, but it might easily be a reason for them, as a
general rule, to require a faxed document.

What discount? I still have to pay for it as well.

Sorry- I thought we were still talking about discounts, but it was
developer status... But the principle remains the same.
