Great site, lots of potential, lots of risks but if you wait it out and you pledge smartly, you won't regret it

I'm a student at the University of Minnesota and I really need a new laptop, so I ordered the Surface Pro 2. However, my order didn't go through because my credit card was apparently denied. I thought this was because my card was just put on hold because my bank suspected credit fraud because of an earlier purchase I had made (ironically for the Touch Cover 2). I was told to update my payment method for my purchase through an email. Because I had cleared up my credit card with my bank, I thought it was ok to use again, but when I resubmitted my payment method, I was immediately greeted with an error and was told that my purchase was CANCELLED. I wasn't even given another chance to submit another payment method. I called in several times to microsoft customer service and they reassured me that this was a mistake and that I would receive future contact to update my payment information, but more importantly they assured me that my preorder was still INTACT. Just received a call telling me that my order was permanently cancelled and that I had to place another order to receive my surface and that I would have to wait another 2 months to receive it and that there was nothing I could do. Note that this is after I had JUST received the touch cover 2 with the docking station just about to ship to me. I will have the touch cover 2 and the docking for 2 months and they will sit there and mock me until I receive my surface, after I have finished just about all of my classes at the U, which was the real reason I wanted the Surface Pro 2 so soon. I blame Microsoft and their website. Customer service was great and helpful, but misinformed and it wasn't their fault. I AM QUITE PEEVED.
I am an avid user of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 and a technology enthusiast, so this is really disappointing. I am still shocked that this couldn't have been settled in a more direct and customer friendly manner and that my original order status couldn't have been preserved.
