AliExpress Purchase Issue - Credit Card Refused
|
Jim Hill, w6ivw
In early November, I purchased a nanoVNA-f from DeepElec through their store in AliExpress, using a credit card. It was received in early December, with no problems. I was not sure about quality of the adapters as I was not sure if DeepElec supplied them, so just purchased a UHF to SMA adapter set. Mechanically, the set looked fine, so attempted to purchase some more adapters and other accessories today. This time, DeepElec refused my credit card. I tried a second card, with the same results.
Has anyone else has this problem recently? Jim |

When I order things from Ali, I usually get an email from my bank asking did I *really* place this order? I answer "yes" and the transaction goes through. Of course, you need to have email communications set up with your bank for this to work. If you don't, then I expect the bank will just refuse to accept the charge and thus Ali will refuse to accept your card.

I was successful today. I used a Citi card, and the transaction went through. The Chase card I used to purchase the nanoVNA didn't work again today. I thought of phoning Chase to see if they changed their policies, but would face their phone tree which successfully prevents me from talking to a human being.
It was not all bad. When I ordered again, I carefully checked to verify I was using the DeepElec site, and ended up at a different page with more items listed and bought a few more. Ken; I like your idea. Later, when I can safely walk into a bank, i'll look into it. Jim |

Chases fraud systems does not like Aliexpress or many outside the USA purchases. I get around this using paypal to aliexpress.

I used to work for Chase when they where implementing that fraud system. I was the product installer for the POC at the time then started installing it when I changed job to work for Nationwide. Sandra -----Original Message-----

I just purchased some PE4302 Attenuator chips with my Paypal Mastercard on
Alibaba. No problems. I purchased my TinySA from them a few months ago. Also went smoothly. On Sun, Dec 27, 2020 at 4:25 PM john marks via groups.io <kb4uxc= [email protected]> wrote: RandL has the H4 back in stock |
