Molehill Mountain Art - Part II

[choochoogranny]

Kayte, I tried for the Pink Sparkle and couldn't get thru. Looks like there are two Pink Sparkles but with different names. Something screwy.

 

[choochoogranny]

Welp, Paypal is not accepting either of the two gift cards I'm using, Kayte. They say info is wrong and to re-enter which I did or they can't verify one I did just register 1/2 hr. ago. The one they say is wrong into I have used once before in purchasing Heather. Will try again. Hm-m-m-m-m

I'm sure Kayte will get it worked out for you, Chooch.

Looks like Patchwork has found a new home here in So Cal. What a fun bunch of colors!

 

[choochoogranny]

Could it be Paypal isn't accepting the Visa gift cards now? Will try another new one once I register it.

 

[choochoogranny]

Tried another newly registered card. What I get from Paypal is, "The card you entered cannot be used for this pymt. Pls. enter a different credit or debit card number."

The card that was used to buy Heather last week. Paypal says "Unable to verify" to inter info again and/or use other card. Something has happened since Oct. 28th with either Paypal or Walmart Visa Gift Cards?

Edit to add: That can't be right. I bought with two other gift cards on Oct. 31 Storm Dot and on Nov. 2 Solar Flare. So whatever is happening started between yesterday and today. Dang! This is the only way I purchase on line.....mostly my treasured tips!

 

[choochoogranny]

Tearose, congrats on the Patchwork. It ought to go with pretty much anything.

 

[daleron]

Thank you! Mine!

And good night to you all

Heading out in a bit with Gracie for our pet therapy visit at the nursing home. They sure do love seeing her coming! She has a rather large fan club [emoji4]

Y'all have a great day and dale, I promise that I will try to get here more now that things have slowed back down a little at work. It was a crazy summer and crazy long days....[emoji12]

You know... I bet they love to see you coming, too. It warms my heart that you and Gracie do what you do.

I sure wish I knew what the problem is chooch. I'll try to investigate and see if we can figure it out. In the meantime, I put Pink Sparkle into Reserve for you. Thank you!

 

[choochoogranny]

Still working on it, Kayte. Have found that sometimes Paypal will cancel or not renew a contract with with a credit/debit card provider and somehow card "holders" are the last to know.

Thank you for reserving that beautimous Pink Sparkle for me. It's smashing. It's got lines and stars and glitter and HOLES! By golly, think you threw everything in there. Ha!

 

[daleron]

Good morning lovely & handsome ones

 

[mommabird62]

Good morning mountaineers!

Adorable girls kayte [emoji4]

Loving the new avies that I am seeing[emoji6] I guess that I will keep my squonking rattie "Jack" for awhile. Lol

Pretty tips kayte! I need to snag me a shorty widebore pawprint one if I get my hiney on in time [emoji12]

Hope y'all have a great day! Still wet and dreary here... Ready fir some sunshine to dry things out! [emoji1][emoji299]️[emoji299]️

Hi, guys! Too late for morning coffee, but am I in time for dinner? Spent the day slowly trying to figure out what's up with Paypal. Apparently, me and my gift cards can no longer be their guest. It looks as though I will not be able to buy from any vendor who uses Paypal unless I set up an account with Paypal and use one of their MyCashCards......although was told I could use up my Visa Gift cards in a Paypal account THEN start using their cards. You want to take bets on how I feel about this?

On top of this irritating news, decided to buy some coils from MyFreedomSmokes using a brand new gift card and to see if they used Paypal. Stalled purchase! Called MFS and Chad was great at helping me out. Said they didn't use Paypal but their system denied this new card because of a mismatch of address. What? We went over it and all looked just fine. So we both were confused. Thanked him, gave him the info about the Aspire replacement BVC and ProTank 2 coil useage in the SubTank mini (he tried it right then), and said my goodbyes thinking this is the end of my online buying! Looked again at my registered gift card address......... Somehow the street and city was typed all in caps which I don't use!!!

Hope you Mountaineers had a more productive day......I'm having a drink.

 

[tearose50]

What a mess, Chooch. I'm sure after a nice cocktail you'll get it sorted out. I bet if you typed in the address in all caps it will work with that order! (I had a similar experience once.)

I've been a member of pp for ages -- could be the way to go. The other option is have a B of A account as they have a way one can get a "one use" credit card number. I haven't used it, but I hear it works well. Very safe that way.

I haven't researched other options in awhile.

 

[Katdarling]

I have used it OFTEN. It's called Shop Safe. It creates a temporary number for you to use for anywhere from 2 months and up. You also set your own maximum amount in there. It links to your B of A debit card, but when shopping, there will be no visible link to your account. It even provides you with a (temp) security code.

It's not necessarily a one use card. For example, I can request a number and put say $75 on it. I set the time period, and again for example, 2 months. I can use the number for as many purchases as I like ... up to $75. Easy peasy!

It's a bit tough to find tho. I'm not sure why B of A wants to keep it the world's best kept secret.

Good luck, Grans. I'm sure you'll get it all sorted out.

Let Happy Hour beginneth!

All we are trying to do is spend our money, why oh why do things have to be made so difficult? That being said, when my MasterCard had a fraudulent charge on it a while back, I found out about Virtual Account Numbers from CitiCards. I've been using it ever since for my online orders. You can generate a new number anytime you want. Once you use it, that number can be used again, but only at the same business...but you can generate a new one if you want as well. So far, so good...

I hope you get things straightened out Chooch, I know it's SO AGGRAVATING!

 

[Katdarling]

Hey Dale?

 

[choochoogranny]

Aw-w-w-w, thanks guys. It's hard teaching an "old dog" new tricks especially when one was kinda rockin' along doing pretty good. We're talking about using paper checks still! Seems to me with this so called "paperless society" we got "wallpapered" but good with more hacking and I.D. theft than what use to be long ago all for the benefit and convenience of those who deal with "fast money". The security of the consumers be da--ed.......Need to refill my wine cup.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll be checking although the only one I'm concerned about is Molehill Mountain. They are the reason I got started buying on line with gift cards in the first place!

Dale! You made me three!

 

[daleron]

Hey Dale?

You've stumped me Kat ... what does the Partridge Family have to do with Happy Hour??
