What, you have the computer beeping you in the bedroom?!? *I* would have thought that refunds could be denied, given the item. I verify that the billing address on the registration matches that on the card. A customer said he thought the SAME was true. Heck, even airlines will not refund a ticket after 1 day, even if the plane doesn't leave for a month. Even though they haven't lost any money. They oversell anyway.
Of course, certain visa processors, etc... May not understand this. REFUND, as I see it means to RE (do again) FUND (Put money into). This should CLEARLY work all the way around! If *I* PUT MONEY INTO the customers account AGAIN, Tucows should put it back into mine! If they do that, then network solutions should disable the name, and give the money back to tucows. THAT way, I and tucows are out less than a buck, and verisign is out NOTHING! They COULD limit that period to 30 days. I have seen NOTHING actually obligating me to over 30 days. If a credit card gets too liberal with discounts, It will lose CREDIbility, and cease to be worthwhile. So there should be some latitude. Steve >-- Original Message -- >From: "John T.
