CCBill links with encoded '&' don't work

Has anyone talked to a ccbill rep on this?

Everyone is blaming their text editors for encoding ampersands when really that's what they should be doing. I think it's ccbill that needs to address this on their end. Would it be that hard credit links with encoded ampersands?

Going through all our links looking for encoded ampersands seems like a lot of unnecessary work especially considering that that's the way they should be written.

Given time and exposure this may even hurt pay sites as webmasters might choose to not bother with sites that use referral links in this "risky" format.
