infernal machines posted:the one licensed hyperterm install joke as you want but telecoms fuckers swear by that bullshit. mainly because they need to upload firmware or some bs idk, it's dumb as hell. when i say telecoms i'm mainly talking RF dudes deploying bespoke crazy wimax magic poo poo but i'm p sure it's the same across the board.

You can't pay with credit or debit at all, with one exception. You can pay with Visa. The owner, who is like 85 years old comes out with his carbon copy swipy roller thing. They never upgraded to any kind of electronic payment system and presumably visa is the only one that still allows him to do this.

ThePeavstenator posted:Nope, I once entered in the wrong ccv for an online purchase and it went through just fine. It was also with my Cap it alOne card which usually is pretty good about based on my experience with a crappy credit card auth vendor, here's how validation works: bad card number entered: decline over your limit: decline wrong name: decline only for some cards (I think Discover was picky on this) bad address: accepted, return a status code saying the address is wrong (speedrun tip card companies only care about the house/building number part of your address) bad zip code: accepted, return a status code saying the zip code is wrong bad cvv: accepted, return a status code saying the cvv is wrong the thing is the customer support burden for actually returning an error for bad address/zip/cvv is horrid. we had three customers of my company try turning on zip code checking because they would pay a smaller transaction fee. all three turned it off after a week because their customers were getting pissed that their cards were declined, and then they would get more pissed because it looked like they were charged multiple times when they kept trying different zip codes (they were actually just authorizations and wouldn't be collected, but of course it used up their credit limit and showed up on their statement for about a week). god I hated dealing with credit cards.

it seems that knowing where you live would be a sensible prerequisite for buying things with a credit card

This is where "truth in Customer Service" would be helpful. You know, take the "Well, if you could only just remember the 5 digit ZIP code you lived in then maybe you wouldn't be having this loving problem" direction. Also if the CVV is wrong is should 100% fail you no matter what. It's a 3 digit loving code ffs.
