Got it to work.

It seems that the "new way" that companies do CC verification is to put a transaction in with 0.00 dollars.
The CC was not allowing a zero transaction.
The CC person updated that to allow one on their system.
Maybe less secure that way, IDK. Maybe doesn't matter.
But that's the "trend" these days.

No way to tell all that from my end. The CC clerk new though.

NOTHING is ever easy.

But it's ordered. :)

There goes a ton of time (and coincidental timing with a new card in the mail complicating things) that I will never get back. Not to mention it doesn't help the 'old blood pressure.

This is why people hate computers. Even computer people. ;) :lol:

Better now. :)

Still want GF to take me to the store though. Bread/milk/stamps... ;)
Worst of the snow storm is due this afternoon, should be right in the middle of the storm when she gets out of work....

Timing is everything.

How come mine is all bad? :lol:
