We recently started getting errors in our MaxMind saying "MAX_REQUESTS_REACHED", even though we have over 17000 queries available to us. We contacted MaxMind and they told us it was an issue with WHMCS and that they need to simply add "requested_type=premium" to the query. So I sent in a ticket, because this is obviously a flaw with WHMCS, and got the following reply:
I'm afraid WHMCS does not support the MinFraud Premium service at this time, only the Standard service.
However this shouldn't prevent you from performing Minfraud standard lookups. You will need to persist with Maxmind support to get them to add some more Minfraud Standard lookups to your account.
We also welcome suggestions for new features on our feature request system: http://requests.whmcs.com
Feel free to search existing feature requests, vote, comment and submit your ideas.
So, apparently, because WHMCS development team has a history of sloppy code and didn't properly implement MaxMind, we have to suffer? We have to suffer because we get enough orders in a month that we can't use the free service like most other people? We have to push MaxMind to do something that they shouldn't have to do, because WHMCS developers are sloppy?
This is not acceptable and needs to be fixed. If you're not going to PROPERLY implement something, don't implement it at all! I think we're all tired of WHMCS's half-assed coding.

Ticket #CTL-335526 for anyone that works here that actually wants to help instead of blow the issue off.
