I have addressed this issues to Joe directly, he hooked me up to a rep. from the transfer agent and that one told me that the issue is not on their side, and asked me to talk to my broker and they investigated for me and came to the conclusion that they could not do anything more for me, but promised to keep an eye on the situation and suggested me to wait until shortly before the IPO will finally take place.
So all you suggested has already been done now then once on my side, but with zero results.... at least so far.
