Ever think maybe it's your bank that sucks?

[Pharaun]

Thinkinng back at all the rage I've been seeing about ClickandBuy issues, it's been "Wells Fargo" this, "Chase" that, "Bank of America" and so forth... you know, some of the darlings that caused our current economic woes to begin with (along with a whole grocery list of other sins).

Have people considered that maybe they wouldn't have all these issues with ClickandBuy if their banks didn't suck so much?

Conversely, who's been having trouble with ClickandBuy while trying to use a credit card from a non-evil financial institution?

And yet again you miss the point so hard that it's not even funny. I work for a small credit union (what you would call a non-evil financial institution) as the credit/debit card specialist and I can't get my own card to work for Click and Buy because they are such a shady company and our automated fraud analysis always trips when the transaction tries to go through. So I ask you kindly to quit trying to white knight for SE and this horrible decision.

My thought of what i'm currently hearing about the C&B company could be synthetized like this : A wanabee businessman wanted to make a clone of Paypal because it's cool and his son knows an "IT specialist" who managed to install a website who will be the CTO. With poorly implemented rules and poorly support they now score everywhere as shaddy company. I wouldn't be confident at all in the security of the data, If I had to put my CC information in this kind of company.

The CTO will be who ever Deutsche Telekom (a/k/a T-Mobile) says it will be, since they own the company and all.

I'm not saying that ClickandBuy may not be shady/questionable/evil, but small-time and fly-by-night they are not, at least at this point.

Thanks for the information (didn't even take the time to get it, it was deliberate, kinda douched with ffxi I think)and yeah seems owned by a big company. But finance/payment and telecom is not necessary same business. ( Working for 15 years for some major telecom operator).

Anyway it doesn't mean that it's not poorly designed since the beginning, will not take time to dig info about it. It means that they are financialy viable.
