If you’d like to pay via PayPal, contact our sales team.
For fuck’s sake, either you accept PayPal or you don’t. What kind of shady behind-the-curtains bullshit are you trying to pull?

The API for the PayPal checkout workflow is too complicated for us, but one of us knows how to manually type in the order details to send you an invoice.
They'll probably send you the paypal friends link, which you can't use for business purposes lol
Hahahaha, yep
Even worse: when you have to call to cancel a subscription.
I subscribed online, I should be able to cancel online.
Of course, it's also hidden deep in the terms of service that you can't cancel online. They know what they're doing.
I buy a lot of things for work and if I can find a company that has the price listed I go with them over the one that makes me contact sales for a quote almost every time
Well this one could be cheaper, but how could I even know, the price isn't listed.
It's not cheaper, it costs me time.
It’s more about not rewarding their disrespect and greed. Instead rewarding the company being open and upfront and not wasting my time
If you have to ask for a price, it ain't cheap.
I do the same in stores. If there's no prices listed I'll just walk away. I absolutely hate surprises at the register.
Same with certain home improvement companies that hope once you're on the line, they can close the sale there and then.
I swear they must make all their money off people who don't want to think about what the job involves, and just hand over a chequebook.
The water softener from Costco is £500, the one from ScrewFix is £400, but I'm curious how much the one from NameBrand is.
NameBrand website "Well, it can vary a lot depending on how complicated..."
Forum posts: "£2k including fitting and a year's salt, £1500 for the unit"
(Which isn't an insane price to just have it sorted, I just hate the bollocks excuses when everyone magically still comes out around £2k)
The physical staircase will cost me about £1000, then a few days of skilled labour for someone to fit.
I wonder how much one of those "we'll just handle it" companies in the back of the sunday supplement could do it for...Oh, that's 15 times the price, wonderful.
i have one amazon account i'm locked out from because i forgot the name i used to sign up for it (there are numerous ways i could've written it and they only gave me three attempts) and another one that's blocked because i incorrectly filled my credit card details while ordering a gift card and about to just create a third one because they want me to call them and talk to support for both cases.
Password manager with auto-fill can prevent both issues :)
how so? it would just offer me a list of possible combinations of name/surnames.
i could've written them in four different languages (english, ukrainian, russian, polish), and that's not even including transcription into latin for ukrainian and russian.
and also they don't even say if they expect name-surname or surname-name ordering, so the check is fundamentally broken and impossible to pass reliably.
also the password managers usually don't save cvv and even if they did I'd have to disable that feature because I'm using dynamic cvv that refreshes every hour
it would just offer me a list of possible combinations of name/surnames.
The password manager suggests the details you saved for amazon, usually at sign-in. It doesn’t just show you a list of everything you ever typed into a form field.
