Donate via SMS

[Brendan]

Yeah, Supported this on the other thread and i'll support it here.

It'd be a pretty easy way too donate.

 

[Kadaj]

This. A lot of people would donate for the trust, then scam, then get banned, then get their money back.

Being a donator doesn't make you more trusted.

 

Kadaj, am I going to get credits o_o

Hey for all those people that are saying its easy to get your money back i dont think it is... Atleast for me... I did one of those tv ads where its 9.99 a month for ringtones ect and i did it once and tried to cancel and when i called verizon they said theres nothing they can do about it, it has already been sent to the company. Then i tried to say my phone was stolen and they still didnt help me... Idk if its the same for all cell phone providers or people but thats what verizon said to me.

 

[Pureown]

u got my full support Kadaj.

very safe indeed, and even if it was possible to recover money (which i highly doubt), it wouldnt be easy.

 

[Shall Skill]

It's not easy to recover payments, i support this.
If it was easy, then Jagex would be poor, because people would buy like millions of pins and cancel payments as would habbo hotel and many more.
I would definitly donate with this.

you see, many companies take 50-60% of all money as a cut, so if you want to donate 5.00, Matt would need to charge 10-12.

 

"But, sir! Someone stole my phone and I found all of these texts sent to this number I didn't recognize. Please reverse the charges."

Take away the perks and ban the user.

The companies charge ~30% which is a joke, not to mention the amount of people who would use phones that are not theirs.
Do not support as this would cause more trouble than PayPal donations

[Markla709]

They take 50-60% Like I said.

 

[Grave]

Won't work.
- It'd cost a bunch more unless Matthew sets up his own company
- People can still get their money back

It's kind of like PayPal, but with a bunch of fees and accounts with no passwords.

This is true, but for some people it could be there only way too donate, so they'd do so.

Look at this site

http://daopay.com

You can get a free account there even though they have alot of fees.

I saw this on the other thread. Supported it and wish there was more ways than just straight to Matthew which is hard enough to do. I don't get how Sythe can't just make a paypal for Donations like other sites do and allow you to just pay, recieve what you pay for immediatly. Obviously other sites must be doing something right where people can't get their money back easy.

So what if somone ends up fraud, ban, strip all their stuff.

 

[Dark Grave]

You Would Have to Go through A provider Such as "Surf Pin" And It would cost a lot more $$$ Then sythe would make...

 

[expertz]

Great idea, I support.

Also enables users from other countries to donate ALOT easy, i myself would donate this way

 

[jeckyll jeckyll hyde]

Agree.

What about other services i.e: Facebook which uses SMS, try telling them to give back your credit.

 

[MurphTurph]

use like onebip or something and this would be great and i would deff. donate
