Good morning I think?

 

[cassius]

i haven't been experiencing any additional delays in payments, so it doesn't sound like everybody?

a lot of people is a lot of people and it sounds like a lot of people are having problems. How do you know I'm not referring to everyone who has complained? Hopefully this will be fixed before it hits you.

but weren't people saying it was only the sunday xfer and that monday's was ok?

 

[SalvadorZombie]

Don't even think about it. It's too big to fail and there's nothing we can do about it anyway.

"Too big to fail" and "nothing we can do about it anyway" just convinced me that you have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this situation.

"They're too much of a shitheap to try to fix, so let them destroy everything." "We can't do anything anyway, because reasons." Seriously. You just lost me for all time with that self-defeating bullshit.

 

[SalvadorZombie]

but weren't people saying it was only the sunday xfer and that monday's was ok?

Precisely this.

 

[Jaded]

Come on guys, let's keep it civil. Either contact amazon payments or wait it out, those are really the only options.

banks are too big to fail or amazon?

i just don't understand how people can be saying they are having problems when it is taking less than 5-7 business days, which is what amazon explicitly says that it might take. IMO you're not having a problem until it's taking longer than that

well, both.

 

[Jaded]

Internet box is working again. In case anyone was worried.

 

[SalvadorZombie]

nor me, i just checked.

To be fair, it being everyone or not doesn't have much bearing on it. Months ago Amazon suddenly, for some people, started taking 7-8 hours for the initial transfer to Amazon Payments, when it had been near-instantaneous. That wasn't everyone, but it was a definitive problem and it was Amazon's problem. Just throwing that out there.

Let's move along, peoples

What Amazon (or any retailer/bank/business/etc.) says and the actual processing time is are two different things. They use that as a buffer between their normal processing time and times when issues like this come up. Acting like there's nothing wrong when something very out of the ordinary happens is just turning a blind eye.
