Trying to call WCF service from inside NServiceBus Message Handler, but it hangs when creating the Service Client - nservicebus

Question

Must be doing something awfully wrong here. Here is what I'm trying to do.
I have a Message handler that should get a message from the queue. Make a WCF call, do stuff and when done, send a new message out on the bus.
It is hosted in the NServiceBus.Host.Exe.
But, whenever I create the Service Client, eveything comes to a grinding halt. If I comment out the service call everything works great... Except, I need that call.
Is there a trick I must do to make WCF calls from my Message Handler when hosting it in the NServiceBus.Host.Exe? I have not made any special config in the EndPointConfig class.
public class EndpointConfig :
IConfigureThisEndpoint, AsA_Server { }
public class RequestAccountUpdateMessageHandler : IHandleMessages<RequestAccountUpdateMessage>
{
public void Handle(RequestAccountUpdateMessage message)
{
// The Line below hangs everything
AccountService.AccountServiceClient client =
new AccountService.AccountServiceClient();
resp = client.DoStuff(message.parameter);
Bus.Send<UpdateAccountMessage>(m =>
{
m.info = DoMagicStuffHere(resp);
});
}
...
}
This is what the system.serviceModel looks like in the App.Config
