Register on the web site, klick on "I'm not a terrorist!", enable FTP 
access for <x> days.  I could implement this on a rainy afternoon.

But since *they* never managed to make their FTP service actually *work*

variant, just say so, instead of wrecking the whole session"), this might 
be too much rocket science for them...
