Never been a problem for me.
When I run into SASSIE wonkiness I email the account manager.
I have developed great relationships with their primary AM as well as the owner. Issues or questions are always addressed reasonably quickly, and they throw a few extra projects my way each year that never show up on the Job Board.
Cirrus is typically my #1 vendor every year, and recently the bonuses have been huge. For the amount of money they pay me I'm ok with industry-worst payout periods (which are now a couple of weeks quicker it would seem) and having to occasionally remind them of their accounts payable balance with me.
