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.

  3. iamgroot @ iamgroot: Some customers were scammed by someone using a nearly identical email address. So I’m planning to change my email to one that uses my official website domain, so it can’t be easily copied and everyone can stay safe from scammers. Here is our new official email address from now on. support@mediattics.com
  4. fyjclol @ fyjclol: Also wondering what happened to the guy with the btc predictions. And +1 for fooseball
  5. L @ LW815: 90% of the time when I see it, it’s being used for exactly what it’s not supposed to be used for(with the exception of you and Layne talking fooseball)
  6. L @ LW815: I’d say it’s fair enough game to discuss whatever you wanna discuss(within the rules ofc) and if people don’t like it oh well. It’s not like the shoutbox is constantly popping off with other discussion lol
  7. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Well sorry if I bother anyone with my sports talk :) much love to all. Happy holidays.
  8. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Shout box is for sports, hey, Happy Thanksgiving. It’s not for those other things people like to bring up. Please use or start a thread in the appropriate place.
  9. L @ LW815: Better to push other worse discussions out of sight IMO and see random sport shit, but also kinda makes it hard to have that content removed if need be. I don’t know how to view the entire shoutbox recent history but I know it’s possible lol so it’s both a good and bad thing tbh
  10. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: exactly
  11. L @ LW815: I agree @Ketmaster but their lengthy sport discussions usually tend to happen at convenient times, like when somebody is talking about or asking things that the shoutbox also isn’t meant for(that are worse than random sport talks)
  12. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: I appreciate the good vibes but I agree sports stuff should like be in a thread or PM or something, not a sports guy so it is kinda like wtf is happening people are messaging each other in a shoutbox
  13. T @ timyboy: Where is the guy with the BTC predictions?
  14. F @ Floaty: like them using the shout box tbh, its appreciated good vibes. Not sure if the box has another purpose seems like its the correct use though
  15. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I'll start a thread for us in the Sports section later this morning.
  16. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I hated Canales' playcalling. Run the ball. That's what 9ers did since they knew it'd be that type of game. But at the same time, the panthers have a young core, and that was their biggest game in years lol. I understand MNF throwing off the passing game sync and shit just from being hyped up.
  17. L @ luquitoad: Yall should start a sports thread and keep it out of the shoutbox..... just a suggestion .
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: I don’t think we’ll be in prime time again anytime soon 😂
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: What a horrific game @tiquanunderwood seeiously embarrassing. Defense did their job Bryce the offense and Canales play calling has been atrocious
  20. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain legoooo panthers babbyyyyy
