FYI for Windows 7 upgraders

I just got off the phone with Microsoft when helping a customer. Some of the activation servers are down. As a result of this some activations wont happen until another 48 hours.

HI, Can you share the telephone number to contact Microsoft ? I have been trying to force the activation by using "slmgr.vbs/ato at the command prompt, but I keep getting the message that my "product key is blocked". Thanks, Mike
