I entered my bank information on the regular Google Checkout page, so I will post once my information is verified to see if that somehow bypasses setting it up specifically for the Market. On Mar 13, 9:36 am, jsdf jasons...@gmail.com wrote: Okay, now we are getting

Wait for it. That's all. I couldn't get my account verified, and had to send emails to support for a few weeks to get it all straight, but in the end, to Google's credit, they worked it all out. On Mar 12, 10:02 am, jsdf jasons...@gmail.com wrote: Unfortunately, 24 hours later, it is still

Agreed on Google support, but I guess that's what we get for free stuff. Oh wait, they're (trying to ) make money with Google Checkout. My concern is that many potential customers will not bother with Checkout altogether due to Credit Card requirements and possible problems with

Bump! It's been down for 15 hours for me now. I submitted a help request to Google, but of course it probably got routed to the black hole that is tech support. Please can anyone confirm?? Anyone from Google able to help on this?? Thanks. On Mar 10, 8:16 pm, jsdf jasons...@gmail.com wrote: I

You aren't going to get an official response from Google on this list. The Google engineers here are developers who get involved in technical discussions. You are now at the mercy of Googles support infrastructure. Al. jsdf wrote: Bump! It's been down for 15 hours for me now. I submitted

Unfortunately, 24 hours later, it is still down. And, I check with a friend who works at Google, but he's in Adwords and is unable to do anything. Even he said I'm at the mercy of support, while acknowledging that Google is terrible at support. Now what? Suggestions? On Mar 11, 10:03 am,
