Yeh - well, I’ve now e-mailed them, because since posting, I reset the MBL which didn’t restore UI/login or UI/ssh as I was led to believe! So now I can’t even ssh into MBL! All I’ve got access to now is the public directory!
That will teach me to be patient- ho hum.

Update: I followed NFODIZ Debrick Guide Version 1 and all is now right with the world.
