@WorldRemit How hard is it to refund a canceled transaction? Waiting for more than 1 month is unacceptable. I think am done with you guys 🤷🏽‍♂️@Ismail_WR

For the last 6 months I've been planning a mega infra migration for the @EpicGames Store and this morning we pulled it off without a hitch. That's:
- a new domain for the Store (www. -> store.)
- a new AWS account
- raw EC2 to Kubernetes
- additional CDN connectivity
