wth - I failed age verification

[chellie]

I ordered from direct vapor. Have ordered from them in the past. My order was placed last week. Received an email today telling me to send in a copy of my license.

I am mildly irritated. I read about someone else on the forum worrying about having an issue but that person was an over 21 young adult. I am more than twice that.

I responded to their email letting them know that I have ordered from them before and that I do not have the time for this crap and to cancel my order and refund me and that I am done with them.

I also let them know that should appropriately age verify BEFORE the order is accepted.

Not a huge deal ---there are many other companies out there.

What is irritating is that I have ordered from them before and I am the Internet Queen.

Whatever!

So you’re annoyed that you got carded?

Yea it seems direct vapor has gone to hell because I keep reading about issues with their age verification. I’ve ordered before but doubt I will again. If they won’t service the Internet Queen then I will not associate with them ever again. ALL HAIL THE QUEEN, down with Directvapor.

I am annoyed that their system is not working properly and the unnecessary hassle. I've ordered before from them and have gone through it before --not sending in the license part.

I do not mind getting carded if out and about.

So to get rid of the annoyance --I really hate being annoyed - I do my best to remove the annoyance and let the annoyance evaporate. In this case, direct vapor was the annoyance.

I told them to refund me, vented here and all cheery again.

I would imagine with the FDA setting up stings, and cracking down with heavy fines, we will see more of this.
I have had to send DL once. Photo and DL# blocked, only showed address and age.
Odd that a repeat order is being flagged tho.

Direct Vapor's prices are higher than a lot of other online stores. They did you a favor.

The only place that carded me sent an email for it and when I called to cancel they said that it does it automatically and that they were already processing my order, lol.
I think everything has gotten a bit lax from a year or two ago regarding this. Most shops were panicking.

Long Live The Queen!!!

I had an issue a couple years ago and after quite a few phone calls it was the way my name was listed. I normally go by my middle name but my all my cards and even PP go by my first name. It sounds stupid now but it automatically kicked it out just because of the way I put my name in

I am also probably a bit witchy running around in 100+ degree heat so it just irritated me ... especially since it's been over a week!

Had the same thing happen to me at element Vapes, made 1 order and all went fine, went back a few weeks later and this time got asked for DL photo, cancelled and never been back, plenty of Vape sites out there, so it’s them who lose out on a customer.

I have also ordered from directvapor and went through checkout without jumping through hoops, but that was a few months ago though.

Absolutely a good reason! I've had a theory for awhile now that most of the conflict in the Middle East is simply because they are all hot and cranky.

I got carded for beer the other day. I'm 55. I thought it was funny, especially since the cashier who carded me was obviously younger than me. I almost asked if she was old enough to sell beer....not vape related so...after that I went back outside the store and chain vaped til I saw little lights dancing around in from of me....

Funny but true - definitely a low threshold when cranky...

Nice compliment . When I smoked I was carded a few times. I was happily excited when the clerk said, "We have to card all those who look 30 and under". I was older than that so it was a semi-compliment.

I was carded for cigarettes into my 40's. Then I got diagnosed and treated at 49. I just wasn't carded for an age 55 senior discount.

Trying to delete. Rules.

Direct Vapor did the same to me. I sent an email telling them I would not be willing to send the ID and that no other vendor I use required this. They emailed me back stating giving them the last 4 digits of my SS# would suffice. I cancelled the order.

Forgot to mention that I have lived at my current address for over 25y and am 55. Absolutely no logical reason to card me if they have updated hardware installed .
