Just used Epassporte to buy a Dell monitor...
Damn... I just used my epassporte to buy a Dell monitor. They send me an email to contact their credit card services. I call them and they want to know all kinds of shit including what country the card comes from. I flip it over and it comes from some Island as far as I can tell and I spell it out to the outsourced employee who is having a hard time speaking English. He tells me I am wrong and we go to his supervisor who does speak English but I can tell he is definately outsourced too.
After a 20 minute conversation the order is OK. Turns out the whole hoopla is over the fact that the card is based out of an Island and I am based out of a continent. I hope more Island cards become the norm so that we are not targeted each and everytime I use Epassporte to pay for something of substantial value.
