Highlights from this day

- nhs_pathway_nell — update on the earlier thing if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel 18:44
- nhs_pathway_nell — check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions 19:11
- pbs_pip — refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one 19:59
polite message usually fixes it
do you keep the transaction reference and for how long
is paying in two parts ever sensible
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it

a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this, take that with a pinch of salt
a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that, take that with a pinch of salt

thats gone sorry
check first and last four
slightly off topic but i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
thats a scam pattern
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions

i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice, not advice obviously
[edited]i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message

slightly off topic but on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily, take that with a pinch of salt
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one

post it in scam watch
invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved, happy to be corrected
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
unrelated but coming back after 23 months, has anything changed on fees
