Did you get an answer on this? We received those same post cards after the lady I spoke with told me we'd be getting a post card noting a restriction was placed on the account (but it really meant the restriction was removed).

I got a postcard today thanking me for letting them know I chose _not_ to receive it. Which I had not. In fact, I had called to request. Yes, I called again. Methinks things are still more than a little harried in the Sports Illustrated offices.
