-gasp-
I have cemented the fact that I am just plain unlucky or really stupid at times. But I don't think I am because I didn't see this coming!
Anyway so I was going to pay my bills online and asked my dad for his credit card, I was going to pay 400KD to settle my bills and an extra 100KD for when I travel. Pre-paid expense if you know what I mean. So it's a total of 500KD, cool?
I go on the site and everything goes smoothly until the part where they authenticate the card and tell you that the payment was successful. I didn't get that! I got a "your session has been timed out, either for 2 of these reasons blah blah". So I try again, and again.... and again. I thought there was something wrong with the laptop, so I picked up my sisters laptop and proceeded with my final try. Didn't work. I never got a confirmation page at all! I thought fine I'll go to any store tomorrow and pay there.
A few hours later I get 5 messages.
Thank you for paying your bills. x5 :D (Wayhy ensefag) I got the proverbial slap to the face!
5 emails too. Didn't check them yet.
So you do the math. 500 x 5 = 2,500.
2,500
I just needed 500 :(
