Certain countries are " flagged" ( at least that what my bank told me on my MC ) , had to tell them I preapproved the charges, did this when I traveled to SE asia before vacation travel timesYour card probably has a foreign transaction restriction on it. I've read posts about others haveing the same problem. You would need to call up your bank and have it removed.
IDK, i guess the benefit is that i was actually ABLE to pay for my order!!! Other then that, i guess there was no other benefit of using it.What's the advantage of using a Greendot type card vs a regular credit card? Anonymity isn't one of the features:
"Federal law requires us to obtain, verify and record your name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, and phone number when you register a Green Dot Card. If a valid social security number is not provided, a Personalized Card will not be issued."
It's easy enough to generate a fake SS# that will pass validation, but do they verify that all the info matches?
Small order, being it was my first. Wanted to "test the waters".Ok, thanks. I thought it may have something stealth-wise going for it. What kind of beans did you get?
I placed my order the day after you, Monday the 8th. Still waiting on delivery, last update said it departed the sort facility in Chicago on Sunday. I'm thinking it will be here Tuesday.Yay! Received my order on Saturday the 13th. Talk about quick delivery! Beans arrived and in good shape. The staelth wasnt all that stealth, but hey it worked because it nade it thru customs and wasnt even opened.
So, i placed my order on Sunday the 7th, Order was processed on the 8th, and at my house on the 13th.

Not in the mail today, tracking page shows they have made it to my home state but not my home town yet. Maybe Wednesday.I placed my order the day after you, Monday the 8th.
