    A note about "Verified Providers"

    There is such rating on ebay too. However the common thing is that these websites are shops / proxy between the buyer and the seller. People go to that site to buy the product. And this here at the moment is a forum, not a web shop.

    Seagate Drives

    It seems warranties work in a different way where you guys live. Here i never have to send drives directly to Seagate, instead i return the bad drives to the supplier we bought them from. He then gives us the replacements. And we are happy with Seagate. The same goes for other hardware we buy...

    Fees waived?

    Yes, that would be the right way. Cancel the order / invoice, and this time you should place s new order and get a new invoice with the correct amount.

    Fees waived?

    While "waived" should mean "removed" or "not charged at all", editing an already issued invoice could be problematic. In some countries it could also be illegal.

    Privacy concerns over CGNAT?

    @willie when every customer has a real IP if some random user does something bad, like upload child porn or hack the NSA, the ISP can easily map the IP to the user. When using NAT, this is not easy. So the big ISP HAS TO log all the traffic to be able to identify the guilty user in such cases...

    It's not in the EU, but... how about Russia? You know some individual, who probably has some connections there ;-) Which is probably necessary, to be able to operate anything.

    Requesting photo ID via email OK?

    So if someone wants to develop a paypal module for WHMCS which uses Authorize & Capture - i am willing to donate. Also WHMCS integration / module for Jumio verifications would be nice.

    Requesting photo ID via email OK?

    Could, indeed. I guess you could even automate it via WHMCS hooks. Then again someone could automate and send you 1000 payments. You refund them all. You are short of $300 in paypal fees :)

    @gxbfxvar yes, we've considered these, i have some of these at the office for testing / development. I've talked with the owner of Olimex about the possibilities to make us some custom boards with our specifications... but he wasn't very enthusiastic about the idea. I also asked him if he would...

    Requesting photo ID via email OK?

    @ this is returned in the IPN, i.e. after the payment has been made. Of course you can choose to refund it if it comes from a non-verified account, but this costs you money. AFAIK the only way to not accept payments from non-verified accounts is to use the "Authoried & Capture" scheme...

    Requesting photo ID via email OK?

    I don't think there is such a setting, at least i cannot find it. I wonder though, why nobody uses Jumio for verification.
