It was a flat-fee entity formation, so I'm not getting paid anything for this

The IRS computer system glitched when I applied for a Tax ID number. The system generated a number for the new LLC, but we couldn't retrieve it. All I want is the stupid Tax ID number. It should take all of 30 seconds once I get someone on the line.
