Have these flashcart sites looked at accepting Pre-Paid Credit Cards or Visa Debit cards? PayPal is usually the online shopping solution for people who don't have credit cards. However, banks are offering more services for people who aren't eligible to acquire one.

Anyone who is over the age of 18 can apply for a paypal debit card. All you need to do is upgrade your account to Business.

That's how I have gotten around sites that don't accept PayPal.

I still put in a subject for email but that's out of old old habit... I didn't know you could use a link in the subject line though.... I would have thought it was invalid or something. Too bad you couldn't have some sort of 3rd party email system. To filter out this kind of garbage before it hit the Paypal server.

we are trying to find other payment method however as you know paypal is most used, we accept now credit card already but no amex,
trying now alertpay payza but still not received their validation email
however direct payment to paypal email is better to avoid, there will be always one that put a note or subject or open dispute and say r4i or flashcard

Doesn't this means that you can nuke any paypal account by sending a small amount of money + a blacklisted word?

And yeah it's sad that paypal has such a huge monopoly on e-payment, not enough alternatives.

There are always dumb asses too smart for their own good that cannot, for the life of them, follow the simplest of instructions.

I've been in the Army. Trust me, I know.

How about direct inter-bank transactions? Customers could email you the transaction ID or receipt ID to identify themselves and their purchases?

zhuzhuchina, another suggestion for a payment option, another China-based website I buy goods from, albeit not flashcarts, but they do sell knockoff systems pre-loaded with roms and fake Beats by Dr. Dre headphones, they end up doing their transactions through a site called alipay. It might be worth you guys looking into.

The only problem I've had was Visa put a block on the last transaction I did through them because as I explained to the CS Rep from TD Bank, and she agreed that was the issue, it was a large payment (over $80) to an overseas company, so they took the block off of that transaction and it went through no problem.





There's always gotta be some dumbass who fucks it up for everyone else.

Edit - and shit like this is why I am getting away from Paypal at every possibly opportunity, using Google Wallet or just direct payment when possible.

Yeah I've used alipay from that website that Plasma dragon007 suggested. It works really well, however it doesn't seem to accept visa gift card payments. It seems secure.

That might not even be a problem on their end, but with your prepaid Visa bank. I've used a few different ones, the one I had the most trouble with was from Vanilla Visa. Shit card.

Not that I get them anymore, but if I needed to, and for anyone else out there, see if your bank does prepaid Visas. Mine, TD Bank, does them with no activation fee (you give them $25 they give you a $25 TD Visa card), and since it goes through that specific bank and it's registered to you there, there shouldn't be any problems using them (I didn't when I was doing it). Just usually need to hold some sort of account with that bank.

Yeah, It's not the Vanilla Visa one it's the non-crap one. I've had to deal with that Vanilla Visa before and it wasn't pretty.

and right on the bottowm of this forum page, right now (page #1) is an ad by adchoice for a company that accepts online payment...(wow hows that for serendipity?)
I suspect few upstart online payment companies would turn down any business, but I could be wrong. The ad, in the event it hanges before someone reads it is... 'Accept payments Anywhere' ...www.PaySimple.com/CreditCards "Accept online,by phone and instore. Take check, ACH and credit cards.. "Would this help?
I hope so.

Just a thought; Did anyone consider whoever did this, MAY have done this intentionally? (like an agent for Nintendo or some other such affiliation)

All this supports my credo, some people are born to create and add to this world, , some to use it and affect no change at all, and then, the rest are only here to, consume, destroy it (recklessly)regardless of what they think thier own intent it.

I hope this wad, who did this, get his or her Dogma run over by thier Karma.

Now that's just terrible. I've always used zhuzhuchina to purchase console modding stuff. I'm glad you were able to find an alternate payment method, you guys were always the cheapest and the most reliable :)

Didn't ZhuZhuChina have that wsmile bank or something? It worked out just fine when I placed my Supercard DSTwo and Acekard 2i orders back in May... I'd really be surprised if someone doesn't have Visa or Mastercard and they shop online.

Good to hear you're back and going. I want to find whoever got them flagged and slap them in the face. Zhuzhuchina is a good site to buy from.
