5 Dimes, what else can I say?

[AYCE]

Isn't it amazing that how people can easily forget what happened when SIA "disappeared" for a while about 18 months ago?

And isn't it amazing how 5 dimes had handled this "incident"?

Comon, people!

Like Jeff said, 5dimes's office is at the same floor with the other Unified books, so why would "some of them" have "problems" while others doing business everyday, and

NORMALLY!

What kind of "problem" is that!

So each of them is using a different server and lightning just striked 5 dimes and a few others?

Even if that was the "truth", what kind of "shipping company" they are using and what kind of techincal personnels they are having to solve this "problem"?

Or should I say, how much more time they want to buy?

How can you not at least give some feedbacks to your customers?

Hey, there is absolutely no excuse for that.

Bookybashrr,

even "IF" your system/server is down, you can always go to the other desk in that office to log on here.

Is 5 dimes Al Ross related? To his defense and he usually doesn't have one, there is a credit card company that alot of offshore outs use that simply is not paying right now.
I'm not sure that is the case here, but it very well could be.

Fats,

thats exactly what had happened when SIA "came back" from that "crash" on 1998.

They also took "quite a while" to "figure" out your account balance.

But at the same time, any kind of deposit and betting are "very well welcomed".

And they had "so many bonus and specials" at that time also, they even gave their customers a 10% bonus on their balance after Christmas!

See, I told you, this is not something new!!!

Quite frankly, I am still NOT 100% sure on whats the "reasons" that caused SIA's "disappearing for a while" back in 1998.

BUT it really doesn't matter.

WHEN A CUSTOMER LOSES FAITH ON YOUR CREDITABILITY, WHEN I DON'T FEEL SAFE ON MY MONEY WITH YOU,

WHEN I JUST SIMPLY DON'T TRUST YOU ANYMORE.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LIE AND THE TRUTH?

So please tell us, 5 dimes, so far you have handled this incident, why should we still have faith on your words?

Whether its the truth is not important anymore, at least to me.
