I nearly fell of my chair with laughter. From my web stats i can see that 45% of my clients use other browsers, so how a...

    Hi, Excuse me if anyone has asked this already. A customer has pointed out to me that there is a problem with HSBC E-Secure's online certificate which scared him off using that payment option. After investigation, it seems that IE8.0 allows the certificate to go through, but Firefox and...

    Paypal holding funds.

    Protx / sagepay or HSBC e-secure payments are the ones we use now, never had a problem with Protx / Sagepay, Hasbc were a bit flaky early last year and we stopped using them for a while, but since ditching paypal we renabled them, i have my fingers crossed. Timmo.

    Paypal holding funds.

    quite simply we have removed them as a PSP on our website, we did phone them, they were very rude. we did fill out the questionaire, trust me it was not a glowing report. I would strongly recomend to aanyone using them, find another PSP before they screw you over too. Timmo.

    In A sentence, what would you do to solve the downturn..

    If we had an election now, i think people would feel a lot better, it's pointless to drag it out, another year of misery watching the bumbling fools dig us in deeper. Timmo

    In A sentence, what would you do to solve the downturn..

    i like the supermarket tax, £1billion a week profit says to me that tescos are either ripping us all off or not paying their suppliers properly (squeezing down prices of milk etc). A 2nd sentence (oops). I really think the government is seriously spineless, basically they know they won't...
