@rustydev yes and the problem of the US-centrism wjen it comes to the 3 relevant credit cards and 2 big payment processors is a huge problem…

  • Even if you ain't a regime like Russia and China who decide to mandate their own, domestic competition to be used domestically (in this case: Mir & UnionPay respectably)…
    • Cuz the US regime is known to nilly-willy commit economic murder on people just becaise they dislike them or their employers. Not because they did something wrong/illegal in their juristiction!

Meanwhile wero is a controlled opposition that can't be bothered to even properly fake their "Souvereignity-Washing" halfway…

  • And the least worst option (not best!) is being criminalized because it's the closest to digital cash!

@Bundesligatrainer @chbmeyer @pankraz @gnulinux @codiflow @glsbank es braucht vorallem eine echte Konkurrenzfähige Umsetzung und keine "Kontrollierte Opposition" die allenfalls mit Instant-SEPA konkurriert.

  • Sondern es bedarf einer Lösung die nicht reines "Souveränitätswashing" alla Mir & UnionPay sondern echte Konkurrenz und Unabhängigkeit von AMEX, VISA, MasterCard & PayPal.
    • Solange das nicht gegegeben ist, werden Monero & Bargeld immer gewinnen!

As a #Delta #AmEx card holder, I’m not too happy about the decongesting / downgrading of service when I fly. Another instance of corporate greed? You decide.

Dear #AmEx #AmericanExpress

In the year of our Lord 2026, it has become the norm for people’s e-mail settings to NOT load remote images (aka tracking images) by default. Stop equating my lack of loading remote images as an unsuccessful attempt to notify me of a new statement and sending snail mail to me saying as much.

Oh AMEX.

I got an email this week from AMEX. It looked like a phishing email. Even the sender's domain wasn't just the americanexpress.com domain, it was emailamericanexress.com.

The email was legit, they wanted me to call the number on the email. I looked up a different number, it was about money wired to me that wasn't accepted. Perhaps this could have been a message on the portal?

Also, they offered to record my voice as a password. I mentioned that this was awful security.

💳 Kreditkarten sind eine sehr amerikanische Angelegenheit. Ihre Geschichte reicht bis in die Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts zurück. Sie beginnt mit kurzen credit reports, die die Kreditwürdigkeit einer ökonomischen Person bewerten. Das zweite Kapitel meines Buchs folgt den daraus entstehenden Objekten und Infrastrukturen kleiner Schulden: charge coins, charge cards, Kreditkarten ohne Plastik – und mit. Wie sind #Diners Club, #Amex, #Visa und #Mastercard entstanden? 📚️

elite travel cards are a waste of time and money, the benefits suck, status is pointless, and since I'm expensing it I'm going to get blitzed at the airport bar on better beer than they serve at the Centurion-Sapphire-Delta Lounge (did you know they have LINES now????)

the real pro move is the card that gives you 6% cashback on groceries, that shit is tight, long AMEX

Gestern bei einem #IT Service einmal mehr gemerkt, das #Lexware Office vieles nicht kann. Zum Beispiel gibt es keine Chance eine #Amex Platinum als Kreditkartenkonto einzubinden. Zumindest nicht als #Onlinebanking Schnittstelle. Und über einen eigenen SMTP versendete Rechnungen tauchen nicht unter „gesendet“ auf. Wie soll dann die revisionssichere #emailArchivierung #GoBD klappen? #traurig #SOR
