SCAMMED by @YouTube and @Google. They canceled my YT Premium subscription and told me if I wanted to resubscribe I would have to pay in AUD$. This is despite being a Thai resident. #Scam

@Decathlon your Thai web site is not working properly. It keeps declining CC payments.

@StGeorgeBank @Wise No DM's. No next best steps. These were Osko transfers within Australia which means these transfers should have cleared within seconds. Still waiting on one to clear, almost 24 hrs later. Formal complaints submitted.

[Greg Carroll @peciacake]

@StGeorgeBank Why are you taking so long to send my funds to @Wise

[Greg Carroll @peciacake]

@StGeorgeBank @Wise @StGeorgeBank Why waste any more time today trying to resolve a straightforward issue that capably demonstrates your attitude to customer service. See CS125710168 and CS125770148.
