This is utterly maddening. I had a similar experience, except that at first they didn't believe me regarding the vulnerability. I basically said, "cool, I'm glad it's not a problem, so when I release the deets and write up a blog post you have nothing to worry about ;-)"
After they finally acknowledged the problem they started treating me like I was a criminal who attacked them. I strictly follow responsible disclosure, but it's crap like that that makes me want to reconsider sometimes.
