Google wallet support sucks!


Recommended Posts

about two months ago i started seeing an error every time i would try to make a purchase in the google play store, saying to wait 24 hours and try again, after about a week trying, i called google play support and they directed me to google wallet support, which they told me my account has been blocked, the first dude told me he would send me an email with instructions how to fix it, i waited and the email he sent said pretty much to try again in 24 hours....

i called again and this time around they told me i needed to verify my account, to my surprise it was asking me for a scan of my driver's license and utility bill, i was like, "whats this bull$h!7?

anyway i submitted the proof, 5 days later nothing, i called again they said they didn't receive the info, i resubmitted the info, waited 2 weeks, tried to access from the desktop website and it shows me my info, but can't add any form of payment, i have like $30 google credit that is greyed out, called today and the account still "flagged" and the support dude says only tier 2 support can look into that and they don't have a contact #, everything is managed through email.

has anybody come across this bull*** with google wallet?

being that their support team is USELESS, who else is there to contact?

i had no issues before and have had my google account for many years, i had my credit card setup as primary form of payment but apparently now everything goes through wallet first. tried to different debit cards from different banks and won't let me add them.

Yup. I've had a problem a while back with Gwallet. If you restore your device while logged into wallet, it won't allow you to login on your freshly installed device. Had to call Google. They told me to see if it gets fixed in 24 hrs. In the mean time, I restored it again, did all my updates, tried it again with no luck. The next day, I woke up, tried it again. Let me Login no problems. Wheather Google did something, or there was a "timeout" on the NFC chip, I don't know. It's fixed and I'm happy.

    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
    • Last time I used Pascal was in college about 40 yrs ago, programmed an inventory database for my exam.
    • If they don't sell enough of the 1st gen then there won't be a 2nd gen
    • Epic fail, should've added an eSata port on the back, also if the memory/NVME are soldered then they're hardly gonna sell any, first thing most people do with their Steamdeck is, or used to be, replacing the NVME with a 2TB one. At that price they should, possibly for the first time, offer an installments option, say 24 months, they may sell a lot if they do. I'm sure they would have no shortage of credit companies willing to partner.
