Pixtudio credit card trustworthy?
Saturday, February 15, 2003 by DoocesWild22 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hey, i really want pixtudio's suite pixos, but i don't know if I should trust the credit card handling of it. How many of you have used your credit card for it, or have you used other means to acquire the suite?

In my experience, using your credit card on the Internet is safer than giving it to a waiter at a restaurant.

That's strange, I must have used my credit cards in 100's of restaurants over the years and the credit card companies just let them pass no problem.
However, I've used my credit card about 10 times online. Out of those 10, the credit card companies have contacted me 8 times to confirm that I made the transactions. Obviously, the credit card companies themselves don't have much faith in the security of online credit transactions.

On the other hand, I live in a relatively small community. I've been to all the restaurants here at least once, and I know all the owners, as well as a lot of the staff. If something like that were to happen to me here, I'd be able to figure out pretty quickly who the culprit was.

I've used my credit cards on the Internet dozens of times and I've never had a single problem.
You just have to make sure that you are ordering from a secure site.

I've bought so much Shareware, I've almost got a Direct Debit for Internet purchases.

I have purchased all of Pixtudio suits with a C C and have not had any problems so far.

to be on the safe side with CC purchases on the net, you should only use one credit card. that way it is easier to track if something goes wrong.

I know for a fact that pixtudio is safe with your credit card... because the guys that own the site are regulars here... Treetog and Alexandrie... they are great guys if you ever get the chance to talk to them... they are very busy... but I can assure you that if you tlaked to them... they would assure you in a second that your info is safe... and I've noticed at restaurants that they usually just take my card and not my id.. interesting huh... how do they know it's mine??? but that's just an observation...

Now I'm totally paranoid with using my credit card at restaurants. Luckily, the only restaurants that I patronize are usually fast food.
