You can email them at:
BlackBerryDeveloperProgram@rim.com

but just to let you know, I havent recieved any sort of conformation either, even though I have replied to their email, so I dont think you have to worry.

[swactonp]

anyone got payment confirmation on the 2nd round of Port-a-thon?

[AGZ123]

Nope, not yet, but I would assume that they will start sending out emails in the new year (the email they sent us said that they would start sending out emails during the week of 2nd January)

@swactonp Did you do the 1st round port-a-thon? I still haven't received any information on payment on it.

They need 2 to 4 weeks for payment.

[Philipk]

Did they contact you first through email or send it to the address you gave to the company that delivered the Playbook?

It's been a while since we gave the information and it just so happens that I've moved cities since then :s
