Last Notes npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Hi Maria We never received your latest email saying you did not have the LN Invoice you paid, otherwise we would have replied. In our records we replied to you on August 18 and then did not hear back. Sending us just a payment hash and secret (which was your initial email) was not enough for us to track this down, which we did explain in the email and requested other data points you could provide us instead (LN Invoice, exact sats amount, of order reference ID). We know for sure our email service is working, so we aren't sure why we're not receiving some of your emails. Nevertheless, we can see you've provided the reference ID in the email you screenshotted here - this is enough for us to track that order down. We have found that order now, and it was purchase on a second account you had (which we also mentioned in our email) - this is why it didn't appear for you at first. You are checking the wrong account. The account it was ordered on has the username 0210e1d9c4ffc52 (likely another LNAuth account by the looks of it). If you log into your second account (username 0210e1d9c4ffc52) you will find the card details there. It has actually been there all along. If for some reason you cannot access that account anymore, then we can provide the claim link and challenge token for that card via Nostr DM here - just let us know. We appreciate your adversarial thinking, but we haven't built our reputation by stealing customer funds or ghosting support tickets. This genuinely is a misunderstanding related to not receiving what looks like your latest few emails, as well as you using multiple accounts. If that ever happens in future you can always reach out via our Nostr, Telegram, or X account. npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco We posted this in reply to your their message, but what you're describing does not sound like any of our recent support tickets.

We don't provide support via Telegram which you'll notice from our pinned message. Support is available through the app itself or via [email protected] - we always reply within 24 hours there. You might have noticed there were infrastructure issues due to the CrowdStrike/Windows update. This impacted our gift card providers temporarily. npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Our existing Visa cards and these new Mastercard's both work in Australia (the international versions that is). It's quite a while off that we'll have a specific AUD card, although the USD cards fill that gap in the meantime. npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Our prepaid Visa cards are still available in that case and they require almost none of what you mentioned. There are no perfect solutions, only trade-offs. These cards offer greater reliability and more country/currency support than our Visa cards, but to offer those improvements they require additional verification steps. If they don't fit your use case, then we understand completely. npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Our new prepaid Mastercards are here! Use bitcoin to buy cards up to $500, loaded with USD, EUR, or CAD! 🇺🇸 USD Domestic & International cards are available now. 🇪🇺 EUR & 🇨🇦 CAD cards will be here mid-August! Find them on our web app or after updating the mobile app! What's the bene https://image.nostr.build/db99518551678a9f85dd5bd4eeb7e8e4d550e52c84563de74b04033936cc4d5f.jpg fit of these new cards? 1. Less forex fees (ie, none when spending in the card's native currency; otherwise a 2% flat fee). 2. More reliable in the EU (with the 3DS EUR card). 3. More options where you can spend, as some merchants accept Mastercard over Visa. Reach out with any questions, and be sure to read our checkout terms for each card as they're loaded with important info! Not all of these cards function the same, so be sure to read before buying. https://app.thebitcoincompany.com npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Understanding #bitcoin can be a lonely place sometimes. You're not alone though - we're all right here with you. https://image.nostr.build/16c2ab8f038c5b167863cab0fb6c03e70f233453c799240c7e984515e78603ea.jpg npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco Glad to hear you tried us out, and we appreciate the feedback! The way our card provider's API functions doesn't allow us to present info like card balances within the app unfortunately. Although this is something we'd prefer to have too, when possible. In terms of dealing with small balances - ideally you use it in a way that doesn't leave dust. Eg, buy the exact card value needed for your purchase (while keeping in mind the 2.5% + $2 forex fee if spending outside USD/USA). Alternatively, if you use one card multiple times and end up with a small balance, you can ask a merchant to split the transaction over two payment methods (works well at gas stations, based on user reports). We'll have a Mastercard launched soon with different currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, GBP) and better forex fees (2% flat when spending outside the card native currency). Overall there are always trade-offs with these kind of products though. If they fit your use-case it seems awesome; if not, they'll be very clunky. That's why we keep expanding our range to cover as much as we can. npub18tcc00lqpysdsurg567dllzg7jeyr5wcyk2v6w23rx3s3ygyze2qv32nxx thebtcco https://image.nostr.build/8747ff556d144c916763ff3a8e5222d60ed582331c3cf623e6bef3a7fc118e2f.jpg "I'm convinced #Bitcoin'ers are either brilliant or all idiots.

Many merchants will decline them for that purpose and our card provider may decline it for the same reasons. Having said that, there's no harm in testing if you're aware of that.
