Worst (sort of) beginning of the week

April 30, 2007

• ANA Card USA changed all customers credit card #s starting today. Activation went well, but all payment information on their site is now cleared (apparently) and the schedule payment I made last week to happen on 5/1 is gone as well. I tried to make another scheduled payment on 5/4 and it displays my name “ATSUHIKO MIYAGAWA”. Something’s freaking wrong.- I cancelled the schedule payment and will see what happens tomorrow. If the payment doesn’t happen, I’ll make another one. OH, while writing this I got a confirmation mail that the payment I made on 4/21 is now making through to happen on tomorrow. But the payment’s against the old card # (of course). Wondering if it correctly goes to the new card’s credit. I won’t be surprised even if it doesn’t. - Tried to update credit card #s on bunch of sites that do me recurring billing. iTunes doesn’t validate my security code, no matter how many times I type. Easynews doesn’t validate the address line. after 5 times of trying I removed my apartment number and it went well. For Basecamp (37signals) and eMusic, I dinf myself not using these services as much, so I just cancelled.- Dermatology biopsy now charges me $285.00 with only $31 covered by Guardian. WTF. Trying to login to their site to make a payment and the site is not reachable.- The furniture I placed an order 2 weeks ago still saying “Will ship within 24 hours” since last Thursday. Not sure how long 24 hours are for them.Welcome to America.
