|  Ordering from Ultimate? Watch it!
I ordered a TLT from Ultimate Hobbies through their website, and got a little bonus on my credit card statement: $50 for N2P Net2Phone Inc (from Vietnam,according to their help line) $44/month for Hosteur web hosting, Marseilles, France $9.95/month for NetZero $10 for Yahoo Voice Apparently, Ultimate's server is not secure. The TLT was the only Internet transaction that month, and these charges were billed the day after the TLT was processed. All but the Hosteur have been taken care of by now, but it pisses me off that Charlie's got my credit card number. What's worse is that Capital One's customer "service" people (Charlie's brother over there) did Jack Sh!t to help me out on this. Contact the vendors, they said. WTF, where's the goddamn Vikings? Where's your industry-leading fraud protection?  Capital One can suck my balls.If you order from Ultimate, call them up. Don't enter you credit card on the website until they get a secure server. |

I ordered from them over a month ago. My wife has been having problems balancing our check book. Some how the last 6 weeks were off over 200 bucks. I'm going to check more into it. Thanks. Going by the bank to get a statement for the last 2 months. I hope this isn't the problem thou. Man I really hope. If so it's going to suck getting my money back.

I ordered from them about a week ago. My account is fine, I'll keep an eye out though. Also, keep in mind, it could be spyware on your pc, like a keylogger or something.

I ordered a case of tlts but I didnt want to order it on line, because of the non secure site. So I called, and ordered, but I dont know how they went about processing the order there. Good heads up though, Ill be sure to check my next statement. |

Well that wasn't the problem in my case. Paypal was. Does anyone know how to transfer your paypal account balance to your checking account.
