Money!

Thought that would get a few ppl's attention 
My post is really about giving Wincustomize our hard earned cash! In my case I'm talking about subscribing to the site and how I can't. You see I don't have a credit card as alot of us brits don't. We rely alot more on debit cards as it's just plain easier not to straight down a road of debt if you don't have to.
I realise the site won't want to take debit cards and would prefer credit cards but wot happens to us who just can't get anyone to lend us their cards to join with? I use Paypal on the internet. Let's face it it's safer and more convenient and most sites abroad take it.
I'm getting fed up with being told the server is too busy for a limited account like mine when it isn't my choice that I have a limited account. Can someone not sort something out for us credit minded ppl like me
Anyone one else find it the same problem. I know if paypal had been available alot more products from stardock would have been bought and that surely should be the thing that matters to them.

Not everyone wants or needs a credit card, correct? So banks came up with the debit card. This gives a person with bad credit (or one who doesn't want credit) the opportunity to make quick and easy payments without having to write a check. In this day and age, it also gives those same people the ability to shop online.
As long as your debit card has a Visa or MasterCard logo, it can be used online and face-to-face all over the world. I've used mine in America, Canada, Europe and Asia. And before anyone even remotely suggests that I'm bragging about travelling a lot - okay, I'm bragging.
But seriously, I've used my American bank-issued debit card in "Third World" cities like Malacca, Malaysia. Now there's a city with absolutely no infrastructure. But you bet your bippy they take plastic! Just as long as it has the proper credentials (logos).
I hope this helps.
