I'm sorry you are having difficulties. My experiences with the LoTW 
have been nothing but pleasant, and the people who support it have been 
nothing but helpful.

If I have any complaint, it is that a) not enough DX stations are using 
it (of course, it is much more difficult for DX stations to establish a 
certificate), b) the pace of development for awards modules is glacial. 
Most of the users are US operators, but the WAS award module (or any 
other domestic awards) has yet to appear, and is not even expected to 
appear this year.

That said, I think LoTW is a great program and encourage everyone to 
support it by uploading their logs.
