Sure I do.

Last I checked, you weren't allowed to run servers on it.  But now I can't
even find a "business" option on their web pages to verify that you even
get a static IP with it.  I see two options, Basic and Premium (the latter
being twice as fast) and neither talks about IP addresses.

I wouldn't risk a commercial endeavor on it, and I treat this hobby as
seriously as I would a business... my wife and I take great pride in the
quality of service we provide.
