We had the same experience a few years ago, and never got an explanation of why we were rejected. We just ended up buying an Action Pack instead.

Microsoft outsources the vetting to another company. You should have received an email from this company with their contact info. I had to go a couple rounds to get things straightened out, but they responded to my emails in a timely manner. The key thing is to have your business paperwork appropriately filed with your state.
My business website was also developed using MVC, maybe that helped. 
Good luck.

The email came directly from MS - nothing from anyone else.

It is open to pre-business start-ups: that shouldn't be an issue; at least, that is not mentioned on the site. Interesting - how would they know?

The site implies that you can use any framework, not just the bad ones. 
Thanks for the info.

I had similar issues, I ended up having a couple email conversations after using the "contact us" button (or whatever it was.) Typical turnaround was a week to get a reply, and every time it was some niggling little thing, I eventually gave up.

It's almost as if they really don't want anyone to have it!

I could not access my BizSpark account a few months ago. I filled out the web form and got a response email a week later. Send me a PM and I'll send you the email address. It was a real person so maybe he can point you in the right direction.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Thank you very much but your email link is not displaying for me.

That's because he forgot to set the 'Allow private email replies to this message' checkbox.

There might be some hidden criterion that you didn't pass. Maybe they don't like your business idea or plan.

So that's how the universal translator on Star Trek managed to make the lip movement of all the aliens they encountered match the screen.

We had it on VHS a looong time ago...
Maybe I should check it out sometime soon?

I haven't seen it either. Why don't you watch it and let me know how you like it?

The lower half of the face is handled very well though the eyes are less well done but you probably wouldn't notice if you weren't monitoring both faces at the same time.
What does this mean?
You will never know who your really skyping from now on or who's giving that controversial interview on the news bulletin.

"Ask techies for culinary ideas"
So, I am stoopid then. We're off to a party this evening of the bring some food, they provide the drinks. It is Mrs Wife's work's "Santa Evening" so there are children and partners.
I am already making puff pastry twists, very quick and easy - roll out pastry, put a filling in the middle, fold and roll again, then cut into strips and twist them before cooking for 10-15 minutes. Simples as.
Now what fillings shall I do? I am already doing Nutella [sounds awful but works well] and Cheese & Herb. Please, any sane suggestions will be considered and top-shelf brain-dribblers will be taken up on. 
So I've made:
- Nutella: does what it says on the tin; children will be happy
- Bacon & Garlic; not sure I shouldn't just leave them here, I'm sure no one will want any #innocentwhistle
- Cheese & Herbs; good, not as good as I thought they'd be, but good.

Basil, mozzarella, and sun-dried tomato.
Black olive tapenade.
But Cheddar is probably the best!
(I'd be tempted to make some sausage rolls as well, while I had the pastry ready...)

Sausage rolls are not very Magyar. Imagine 50 Brits in forn-parts having a get together, they will want their own stodge, not foreign stodge! The pastries I can get away with, perfect Tesh food.

Did I suggest you take them with you for others to eat?

Bacon and shallot. Chop both, roast for a short time, apply some pepper, and fill the pastry.
