ITunes card rejected by iTunes store- nothing works and support unreachable

I am trying to load a Canadian iTunes card to my account, and iTunes says that the code on the back is not a valid code- completely unrecognized. My iTunes was set to USA default, so I switched to Canada's iTunes server (with a phony Canadian address, considering that this is a pre-paid Canadian iTunes card since no credit card being used for anything and we aren't ordering anything physical, just downloads)... but it still not recognizing it as a real card!
I tried going through the "contact us" thing on the help site, and it's giving me an error every time I try to send the online e-mail form, and this whole thing is really getting annoying- we hadn't been told that the card would only be valid on the Canadian server either, so iTunes had better have those CD's available in Canada too or I'm considering suing.
Does anyone know what is wrong with this card (we just got it today), and how we could possibly get it to work right???

This is EXACTLY what happened to me and many others. Tech support returned most of my money but not all of it. Figure that one out! It is clear no music is downloaded (or in queue), it is clear an unknown error message is produced, and it is clear we, the consumer, are still being charged anyway. Will Apple require a credit card from its customers and alienate those that do not wish to use a credit card? Will Apple insult its customers and make silly suggestions such as 'Use an iTunes gift card' in much the same way a forum moderator has already recommended?
I have an idea: Acknowledge the problem publicly (via email, for example) and fix it in a future update. Customers will be more understanding if they know there is a temporary problem and Apple is working hard to fix it. Oh, and return our money, please!
