Can show data, have to take out cookie info for proof


Got an process error on Amazons payment flow yesterday too....



P.S. .. The private sector doesn't do it better... not by enough to mention it...


JMHO

1. I'm not familiar with ISE...

What is it?

[uponit7771]

2. sry... techie talk for severe server error... meaning crap has hit the fan if you see it in a system

... that's been live in production for more than 2 years.

3. Thanks!

4. Nothing turns the air bluer chez Warpy

than trying to cope with Pay Pal or with a bank that should probably remain nameless.

6. my computer guy told me not to bank online...he says we're losing the battle with hackers...

I have reverted to my old fashioned banking. Not that it's all that much safer but at least I don't fear making some dumb mistake on my part. I tremble for the day which will come when paper checks in the mail won't be accepted for bill payment and I have to go with online checking again...and I don't think that day is too far in the future...

9. No, it's not. If it's easier for them, they won't give a shit if it exposes us to fraud

I keep my ATM card on a junk account. If it's hacked, the damage will be minimal.

[CTyankee]

10. So you use an account w/o an ATM card? Makes sense, if you do...

[Warpy]

11. Yes, it's where the serious money is.

I have an ATM for the holy shit! money, but I've never activated it.

[TeamPooka]

5. no but eBay was giving me some "file not found" pages earlier today

because the private sector is perfect...like you said.

[Fumesucker]

7. Are you trying to imply that private insurance companies aren't perfect?

Because that's not what I've been reading on the DU lately.

12. +1

8. To be fair, Paypal *is* very competent at occasional spite-laced largescale theft. (nt)
