[Schizo Journal] Be smart about war: Visa/Mastercard/Paypal
2 months ago
>inb4 this is cringe. Don't care + didn't ask + no bitches + whatever the kids are saying these days.
Had a few thoughts about the visa/mastercard/paypal thing. First off, let me once again share the numbers:
Mastercard (US): +1-914 249-2000
Mastercard (Int.): +1-636-722-7111
Visa (US + Can): +1 (650) 432-3200
Visa (AUS): 1 800 125 440
PayPal: +44-0203-901-7000
Mastercard (Aus): 1800-120-113
Mastercard (US): 1-800-627-8372
Mastercard (CA): 1-800-307-7309
Mastercard (UK): 0800-96-4767
Point 2: CALL, DON'T BOTHER WITH E-MAIL. E-mail can be discarded or left to a bot to respond to. Spam filters and such. But constant customer complaints over the phone is a little harder to ignore, kind of like taking a shit in the middle of their call center. (Don't do that. Have some decorum.)
Point 3: DO NOT INFIGHT This fiasco has united the ENTIRE FUCKING INTERNET. Yes, you are going to be shoulder to shoulder with strange people. People you might've considered absolute mortal enemies before all this. Your enemy, the payment processors, are well aware of this, and are no doubt hard at work trying to pit you against one another. They have done this before with Occupy Wall Street by derailing that with all this identity shit back in 2011. It's a tried and true trick. DO NOT LOSE FOCUS OF THE GOAL: MASTERCARD, VISA, and PAYPAL MUST BE DEFEATED AT ANY COST. If that means you have to team up with MAGAGuy62, AnimeTankie, DickTwiddler69, or RickytheHedgehog for the time being, SO BE IT. Do NOT fall for bait. Do NOT take your eyes off the real enemy, and the real enemy is RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.
Point 4: DON'T STOP UNTIL THEY DO. It may take weeks, it may take months, and it may take years. But remember Saul Alinksy's Rules for Radicals: A tactic that drags on... drags. Never stop hammering them until they bend and break. I don't care if it's Christmas, Hannukah, Ramadan, or whatever. DO. NOT. CEASE. Take any proposed truce and piss on it.
Be relentless. Be smart. Don't fall for trickery and fight to the bitter end.
