    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy Heather Bishop - If we pick the snake up from the hub we will kill it...intentionally

Probably getting off track with the CC/User/Minor thing. Best bet is what previous member stated and don't take original answer from bank and fight it. Also avoid this young lady at all cost. Thanks for letting every one know to avoid Heather Bishop
 
Lucille, the mare fact of getting a summons may induce the party to pay. Any additional charges in the presentation of the summons can easily be added on. The object here is to put the person on notice that the shipper "wants his money back" not a profit but to get back what he paid for in good faith.

Insofar as an authorized user being required be on the checking account if a card is issued, i did not say ALL banks, but many banks do. Bank America goes out of there way to insure that they themselves are protected. PayPal has a card as well, but the obligation is on the funding source. They may have an entirely different set of rules regarding underage users.

Until an issue occurs, it is best to open a checking account independently if you want to give your child a card. It would be a debit one only as they are using there ownl money. This way no attachment to the parent would make him obligated .
 
It could have been a prepaid credit/debit. My 11 year old has one, and I deposit part of her Tribal percapita payments on it. I would rather have her lose that, with a pin number, than cash. Her card is also linked to send my phone a text every time it's used. Thats how i knew what my Christmas gift was LOL but I told her Santa told me. It sounds like the father has a thing against snakes.How he acted was very rude, and the daughter should learn to ask her parents before purchasing an animal. The fact that this animal survived two trips, in the same package shows that Matt did a phenomenal job packaging, and I would not hesitate to purchase from him.
 
I would imagine the parent is responsible for anything the minor does in the end, but I would bet on the parent being a dead beat welfare bum so probably not worth the trouble to pursue it.
