When you decide to cancel the account they try to keep you as a customer so you have to be adamant.Similar reasons as given by the author.Eamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06113513952030287447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953397841255562532.post-59074226566644630762009-08-07T14:20:50.401+01:002009-08-07T14:20:50.401+01:00Hi all,
I was lucky since now as I didn't had ...Hi all,<br />I was lucky since now as I didn't had any of the pitfalls here described. But believe, after a life working inside Corporations I have had to learn day by day a terrible lesson: Business is Business. Customer care and other things doesn't mean nothing at all for any big Company or Corporation. <br />I remember when there was a TV spot made by Microsoft, just an example, but you could name it as you like. In this spot a guy was dancing in an open space saying words like "we could save a dime for any web transaction we will have". After two or more song replay a manager, coming from nowhere to to shut off the noise, was saying to the employee: "OK OK but why did you scream so loud". Than the employee with a big smile on the face sad to him "we have 100.000 web transactions in a hours for 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year ...". Suddenly also the manager understand the way or the dime and started dancing and quite screaming. That's the secret for the modern financial void economy, make small amount of money, well sometimes not so small, from zillions of atomized operations. Who had a problem from a single operation may be threatened as guilty in any case, there is no way to retrieve a logic controls of any operation that cost a dime and give a pound to the pseudo service furnishers.<br />To apply logic control or step control to any of this operation will be too costly. So those companies catch their Business also having not any kind of control over operations. This translate in all and more the pitfalls we could read here and elsewhere. And there are worst examples on the skins of everybody would have a little bit of loosened control, like developing countries and so on.<br />What have had the snake oil dimension now is bigger and bigger under the financial globalism, as centralized controls loose the power to act over the snake oil financial contents. <br />What we could do close all out PayPal account, yes it could be done. Tomorrow we will have a brand new PalPay company, that's all. <br />What we could have is a Global Customer care Authority, who will pay for those, as for UN agencies, the same Companies and Corporations that we are in need to be protected by.<br />There is a word to all this, but forget about.<br />We should talk about pitfalls as to make everyone knowledgeable about, but after all we will have only personal tools to act against those horrible monsters. We have to make the difference all together as usual.<br /><br />I hope my ItalEnglish was readable and clear. We could still make a lot of fun with ours hobby. G4ILO, many thanks for this place.<br /><br /> 73 Salvo iw1aydIW1AYDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06275343071700945299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953397841255562532.post-58655464344178161782009-08-07T13:07:11.122+01:002009-08-07T13:07:11.122+01:00I'm enjoying your blog always.
By the way, doe...I'm enjoying your blog always.<br />By the way, doesn't PayPal allow that someone sends money first and the recipient make account later?? I have such experience. I didn't need to ask a friend to make account in advance. Of course, I confirmed that the friend accepted PayPal payment in advance. I agree that it is better to have the option that PayPal warns when the recipient address is not registered.<br />In addition, to my best knowledge, Internet email delivery doesn't provide way that email sender exactly notices if the email address actually exists. It depends on the recipient email server configuration, unfortunately.ayokoyamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14605311220746001279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953397841255562532.post-82390056000522860832009-08-07T12:40:41.677+01:002009-08-07T12:40:41.677+01:00Another thing that's bitten me is that I somet...Another thing that's bitten me is that I sometimes use my PayPal account to purchase items for work. Unless I'm completely boneheaded, I can't find a way to pay for items 100% with a credit card that I've registered with PayPal as long as I have a credit balance in my account (from items I've sold). They will deduct from my credit first, then charge the remainder to whatever means I designate.<br /><br />Also, does anyone know how to transfer a credit on your PayPal account to pay towards your PayPal balance? Seems like that should be a logical option, but I can't find it for the life of me.Ed N4EMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06485964458384279183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-953397841255562532.post-63925496845199746722009-08-07T12:28:39.860+01:002009-08-07T12:28:39.860+01:00Actually it was the seller's mistake.
