Unfortunately your post is off topic here, in the MSDN Subscriptions feedback forum, because it is not feedback regarding the MSDN Subscription. This is only one forum
among the many that are on the MSDN Discussion Forums, and given the content of your post, you likely chose the wrong forum. 
This is a standard response I’ve written up in advance to help many people (thousands, really.) who happen to post their question in my forum, but please don’t ignore it. 
The links provided below I’ve collected to help with many issues we’ve seen.
For technical issues with Microsoft products that you would run into as an
end user of those products, one great source of info and help is
http://answers.microsoft.com, which has sections for Windows, Hotmail, Office, IE, and other products.  
Office related forums are also here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/support/contact-us-FX103894077.aspx
For Technical issues with Microsoft products that you might have as
an IT professional (like more technical installation issues, or other IT issues), you should head to the TechNet Discussion forums at
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us, and search for the product in question.
For issues with products you might have as a Developer (like how to talk to APIs, what version of software do what, or other developer issues), you should head to the
MSDN discussion forums at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-us, and search for your product, technology,
or issue.
If you’re asking a question particularly about one of the Microsoft Dynamics products, a great place to start is here:
http://community.dynamics.com/.
DreamSpark students with problems using the Secure Download Manager should read this:

If you really think your issue is related to the MSDN Subscription, and I screwed up, I apologize! 
Please repost your question to the discussion forum and include much more detail about your problem, that could include screenshots of the issue (do not include subscription information or product keys in your screenshots!), and/or links to the problem
you’re seeing. 
If you really have no idea where to post this question, then you shouldn’t have posted here, because we have a forum just for you! 
It’s called the ‘Where is the forum for…?’ forum and it's here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/whatforum/
 Moving your post to the off topic forum.
Thanks

No, they didn't.
