I applied for a password from EODDATA. Sent them all my information and got
ziltch. The next thing I know I am recieving spam referencing the same email
address and my personal address that I just gave out to them. I sent a
request to their support email address and got no answer.

True.
Luckily I'm only intrested in a few 100 high volume charts :-)
Besides of that I don't care to much about the speed.
It's a nice nightly task :-)

It's just one day per file...
Lycos allows upto 10 years back.
