My payment was turned down by my bank cuz they thought it was a fraudulent charge,  even though I told them it was coming.  A real pain.  Are there any preloaded cards that can be used to avoid this?   I know one is NetSpend but that has monthly fees and I don't think I'm going to be ordering that often.  What are good options (not Bitcoin) to use to pay international vendors and not have to deal with banks stopping them.  

 
Moved to payment section, you'll get more of a response here @screamingmimi, or even suggestions if you look around perhaps.

Oh thanks. didn't even know that was a forum. Only going on 3 hours sleep so not all cylinders firing.   I'm most interested in a prepaid debit/credit card.  I don't mind paying international transaction fees, I just don't want the charge to be flagged as fraudulent.

I've used a NetSpend card before and I don't believe there are monthly fees unless you plan on using it on a regular basis like an actual debit/credit card. Or using other services the card offers besides the basics. Just go to the store and load money on it when you want to use it. I'll double check the leaflet/instructions that came with it...if I can find it. But pretty sure you can avoid monthly fees.

 
Thanks for the info.  I ended up setting up my credit card like I was on vacation in the country that was billing me and that worked.  The int'l transaction fees weren't that bad.

I also found this place but haven't had a chance to really read and figure out if this would work

There is no fee like you say but there is an int'l transaction fee.  Oh maybe this is just for signature or PIN and not just once in a while stuff.

3.5% of the U.S. Dollar amount of the purchase transaction, charged in addition to the Signature Purchase Transaction Fee or PIN Purchase Transaction Fee.

Stay away from Payza they rip you coming and going. Had a transaction completed and they would not let the merchant pickup the money. I could not get through to someone to help, sent numerous emails and IM chats that did not yield anything. So, I reversed the charges and all is good.

It should do, if there is any ambiguity of where the card is being "spent" a phonecall can normally sort that out.

  4. O @ ochemdim: @xenxra don’t sweat it, that’s part of investing, especially crypț0. Never invest (or bet) more than you can afford to lose, that’s rule #1. Also, if someone is right most of the time like you, that’s unusual and it’s awesome you’re willing to share with us. Please keep the recommendations coming!
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: also, to that effect, i'm a bit behind on the whole C/R situation, that being said - this is the first time in 16 months that the market pulled back and C did not DM me on telegram about it.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: i want to apologize to the people on here for my calls about the market moving up three days before the crash. the crash we had was essentially a black swan (i.e. an accident) and as is the very nature of "accidents", they usually cannot be accounted for beforehand. a LOT of people got wiped out on that move but I do think we still push for new highs across the board sooner than later as long as Bitcoin stays above $105k.
  7. O @ oh be g: And I agree w u shit happens
  8. O @ oh be g: @finger just to be clear I am not accusing any one of anything just replying to another post explaining how just like any other biz drop shipping exists
  9. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: Thats why we just make sure to always have inventory and never go past the inventory. makes us have skin in the game.... that said sometimes shit happens we get hella orders and have to process 600 orders after a busy weekend and it might take us a week to catch up. so maybe thats all he is dealing with?
  10. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: ooph. i hate to hear the scam word tossed around. sometimes people end up having shit happen...like making a bad move in business, doesnt mean they scammed but that they just fucked up some how.
  11. O @ oh be g: That being said, be careful. There was a period of time of new vendors who exit scam after sending “samples”. So I woould trust your gut and intuition ”
  12. O @ oh be g: @meep that’s always been the case, u will see vendors w the exact same menu. Part of the game.
  13. Kruppe @ Kruppe: Man that sucks about rocky :( I haven't been here long but man he was on point.
  14. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: A pleasure
  15. A @ AnnaSofia: @Dr-Octagon nice to see you again sir!
  16. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: @AnnaSofia nice to see you.
  17. DougBreyers @ DougBreyers: Just came back after a bit of absense and noticed rocky seems to have suddenly disappeared. 🤔
  18. fyjclol @ fyjclol: Nope. It's sketchy af
  19. M @ meepmoopmeep: Strange to see a crop of new vendors after the whole situation… coincidence?
