Yesterday morning I did a HIT for Retail Research, and it was promptly rejected because I "don't qualify" because I don't have "5000+ HITs approved". That's funny, because I actually have100's of thousand of HITs approved.

I wrote to them then, telling them my approval count and that if that was a requirement, I wouldn't have been able to accept it, and I got a reply within an hour simply saying "I approved your HIT".

Funny, over an hour later, it was still rejected. So I replied to his/her email stating as such and asked them to check because maybe they'd reversed someone else's rejection instead of mine.

They replied to that today. The email says this:
As mentioned, I approved it and as for when it will show on your account, I have no control. Thanks

Another 23 hours later, it still is rejected on my end. I think the requester is being a royal jerk. I don't think there's ever been any delay with rejection reversals.

Does anyone have a suggestion how I should proceed to deal with this requester? I'm pretty pissed off at this point.
