CX Leverage is broken - help please!

I've been a loyal user of CX Leverage since it was started. It's been a great way to get discounts that are available through agents without messing with the agents. Recently they've re-coded the CX Leverage site and it is now totally FUBAR. Fares on Leverage are nearly double the fares on Travelocity. It has also lost the ability to do domestic connections. (I travel from Seattle and cannot get it to book from here)

I've contacted various people at CX who don't seem to be concerned about the demise of Leverage. If anyone can help in directing me or this message in a way that might get Leverage back on line I'd appreciate it.

-Paul

Here is a firm example:
SFO-TPE $3416 on Travelocity, $5727 on CX Leverage - Same CX flights for both

From TRAVELOCITY: (Formerly I was able to book this itinerary on Leverage for $2800 including domestic connections from Seattle)

It's not just the CX Leverage site, but the CX USA site does the same thing. No domestic connections and the flights are booked in J instead of D, so pricing is horrible.
