ORIGINAL: Mr.Frag Probably DR had a problem once upon a time with that bank and someones card so they stuck them on the manual verification list. Much as it sucks for you, you have to look at it from DR's perspective. Once you download, there is no ability for them to get paid. It is not like they can hold up the shipment. Just to give you an idea of the joys of banks, the largest in Canada (Royal) dumped in some new code last month and EVERYONE's account transactions stopped for 3 days right at the end of the month. No rent, mortgage, direct deposits were bounced, you name it. Millions of people went home rather unhappy. Oh, i understand them very well, and im not angry at DR (but i am annoyed at the situation in general, that i must admit...lol) I dont understand how it can be a problem in that sense tho, not the way i understand Visa (at least through my bank) works anyway. What i have is not a credit card in that sense, i am not allowed to go below 0 (i dont want to, that has too many pitfalls in it...lol). When i purcase something online, the money is withdrawn instantly, there is no delay. I have never tried to purchase something if i didnt have enough money on the card, so i dont know what happens if there are insufficient funds, if you simply go to minus funds, or the purchase is rejected. Maybe it works differently from bank to bank ? In any case, i am still crossing everything that can be crossed that i'll still get my copy tonight, thanx everyone for their suggestions and help
