****** accounts

BORIStheBLADE · 07-22-2009, 11:34 AM

Whats better/safer to have attached to your ****** account. Your Credit card or checking account?

14holestogie · 07-22-2009, 11:36 AM

I have my bank account primary and cc account secondary. No issues in 10 years.

e-man67 · 07-22-2009, 11:38 AM

I use my CC b/c it is easier to dispute should something go wrong...then the cc company goes after the wrong doer.

I have an on line card with a low limit.It is the only card I use online.The only problem is that my bank kept on raising the limit,I had to get "firm" with them,they have left it alone since then.Let someone try to steal it,they will not get much with it....

BORIStheBLADE · 07-22-2009, 11:47 AM

Is they're a reason why the actual word I used got censored?

Since CA started up, it's been censored out...I can't remember the reason but it's a good one and I totally understand even though my feeble mind doesn't remember exactly why.

Yes, it's a long story.
Short story is that buying tobacco or cigars is against ppals terms of service. Do it and get caught, they freeze your account.
That's why when we make ppal tranactions, we NEVER make any mention of cigars or tobacco EVER.
The reason we know this is because it's happened to a couple brothers in the past.
The reason it's censored is because representatives at Ppal actually found a transaction that took place on one of the boards (long ago) and used it as evidence against a botl who was trying to get his account unfrozen.

Oh. That's nice to know. I always figured there was a reason not to mention cigars in any way.

Yeah, that's good info.
It's also a violation of trade law to charge 3.5% like we do for using ppal.
That's a federal offense. I mentioned it once before and just about had my nuts group stomped.

So now I just stay shut up. Pretend I never said that.

Thanks for the info.
I can see how that would work, but I put it in the general section and didn't mention what it was being used for. It was based with the sol purpose of personal account safety.

Just say Ppal or poopal or "the evil online payment service".
Keeps the eyes off us, and that's good for everyone.

There's times I'd rather not have cops looking through my windows. It's censored for the whole site, not just for you. It's in the site's software settings along with lots of curse words.
I'm surprised we can still call pnoon "baldy", cause he could filter that out, too.

My point is, you did nothing wrong. It's okay, don't sweat it, peace out.

It's built into this forum's bb code, it wasn't specific to your post.

And he's been in a Turkish Prison ever since.

That part I remember.

The way to go.

I use my PP Balance (which is default, I think) if there is one, or my e-check account which has a limited amount in it on purpose as Primary. My PP Credit Card, which has a max $300 limit imposed by them is the second funding source.

When I buy from an online retailer, I use PP's virtual "one-time" MasterCards. I watch their site daily, and when the purchase is complete, I cancel the card #. That way it can't be used again by anyone - even someone at the original retailer.

It's a nice feature, and the virtual card CAN be used to buy cigars.

"Elisha left Jericho to go to Bethel and on the way some boys came out of a town and made fun of him. "Get out of here, Baldy!" they shouted. Elisha turned around, glared at them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. Then two she-bears came out of the woods and tore forty-two of the boys to pieces." 2 Kings 2 : 23 - 24

probably makes more sense now that I've included the quote...

BORIStheBLADE · 07-22-2009, 12:34 PM

Ok, cool.
So I will keep my checking attached to my Ppoopypal then.

Atta boy.
My Ppal balance is first, checking account second. I don't think they can access my credit card because I refused to update the info.
This is a cool fact...
I was the 65th person to sign up for Ppal when they launched.
Made 40 bucks for doing it.
Then I was among a small group of people who could have bought stock first when it went public. I didn't have two nickels to rub together, so I passed.
Had I invested 10 grand, I'd be on the beach right now. Or dead.
