Mastercard
have blocked all my cards after myself trying to buy Lindens on this official site.
This site is used by villains to launder stolen credit card cash back into dollars.
Two banks called me on a Sunday.
They think Linden labs is a porn site
My wife thinks this is a porn site
my daughters think I am a pervert.
I am surgically qualified to remove the Lindens testicles.
Who is responsible for not telling residents using Mastercard, even when the card was refused and why did I have to find out like that?
Let me know who wants to sing Soprano at linden labs.

Um, at one point my account was connected by a Mastercard. I would contact your card holder directly and see if they in particular have an issue with your account? Rather confusing since I know of others htat use mastercard with their accounts with LL.
Did the bankers that call play SL to know it was a porn site or even look at it? Has your wife? ..or your daughter, depending on how old she is? I dont consider SL a porn site, but people that only see certain news reports or comentaries might think it is. Why on earth any bank would say they wont pay to a porn site regardless is beyond me. _____________________

OK, so if this is a real issue... why are you bitching and whining here instead of, y'know, talking to your bank or to Linden Labs?
It's not like any of us can help you. |

If you are saying mastercard has blocked payments to LL because LL is a porn site, I'm calling you out on this one. mastercard is interested in money. they don't care if its dirty money, as long as it is legal money, and porn is, despite the moral minority's protests, legal.

It sounds like the BANK is blocking out Linden Labs, not the other way around. I would have a fit with the BANK, and find out why. They may have had other bank customers that had major issues with transactions through SL and thats why they have chosen to block it out. Again I said MAY have, you would need to talk to them calmly (as my fit prolly wouldnt result in many answers) and find the root to the issues.

Honestly, I have to laugh at how mad you are at everyone else who has posted in reply to your post disagreeing with you on this. Many people use mastercard. Your responding with name calling and insults isnt really convincing people to believe ya.

Linden labs is blocked by MASTERCARD
05-06-2007 14:27
let me try again
So you people don't have happen to you as has happened to me: Mastercard have blocked all my cards after myself trying to buy Lindens on this official site. ALL TRANSACTIONS WITH LINDEN LABS ARE BLOCKED BY MASTERCARD This site is used by villains to launder stolen credit card cash back into dollars. Two banks called me on a Sunday. There is an automatic block by Mastercard WORLDWIDE This isn't up for debate, its a fact and I've just discussed it with the Royal bank of Scotland. Thats all - no debate. FACT. |

Mine was working fine the last time I used it for SL.
First off, I'd call that number back and let them know that you are not happy with their decision and why. Then I'd call the bank on a business day and start the ball rolling there too. *shrugs* Either way, it's not LL's fault and they probably aren't even aware of the issue, so of course they didn't tell you. _____________________

Mastercard called me TWICE on a SUNDAY Don't jump on me Archie. I come in peace.  Just to clarify: Mastercard called you, or Halifax, Bank of Scotland called you? I have a HBoS account with a Mastercard and am dying to buy Lindens on it now...but erm, on the other hand, I don't want to lose access to my credit card for a few weeks as a result.. If this is true, it's a big story and will be all over the IT press within a couple of hours, assuming it isn't already. _____________________
