Just about to place an order with them totalling around £100... I always use pay-pal however it's asking for visa card it say this message below!!! does anyone know why I have ordered heads from them in the past with pay-pal. Will hold of on order until someone can throw some light on this for me.
(PayPal unavailable due to: Authentic Aspire BVC Clearomizer Replacement Coil Head (5-Pack).

You can't buy aspire authentic kit from FT with Paypal for some reason. good enough reason for me not to buy Aspire from then as I wouldn't give them my card details.

Thanks for the quick reply... Very strange as they took pay-pal for them in November. I don't want to give them my Visa details, but want the other items ordered, One being a smart 20 the other being a lens filter for camera.

OK.
PayPal are being a bunch of silly billys. They have decided that some items are now unacceptable for you and me to buy. (PayPal AUP) I have two of these items in my current basket at FT.
If you want to pay with a credit card, they (FT) may well ask for a photo of the front of it as well, from what I have heard.
This is the point at which I would personally not carry on, but taking a photo of the front of your credit card might not worry you. Obviously, a photo of the back of your credit card is a total NO-NO.

Madness, I really don't get it! what the hell has it got to do with Paypal what I buy... Wish I could find some logic to that decision.

JuSt remove the genuine aspire items from your basket then you'll be able to checkout with Paypal @pacer

You could get the aspire styled coils instead, not sure if they're any good but worth a punt for a couple quid, I've got some for the same reason but not sure if I've tried them yet which might be a good thing

I was putting a new head on daily as they where giving off a burnt and flavourless taste.... Maybe I had a bad batch. So tend to stick with the real thing.

Maybe a bad batch, with the BVCs I always drop 3 or 4 drops f juice directly into a new coil, leave it soak for 10 mins once the tank isol led then a couple of dry pulls before firing it up otherwise it's likely you will get a burnt taste.

I used a credit card to buy some aspire coils from FT. I only use that card for anything that I don't want to give my debit card details for so that if anything goes wrong it's the bank's money not mine I didn't have to take a picture of it though! djs did you just edit a bit out of your post? BTW i've moved this discussion into the shopping board

Why not order something to the same amount in money which aren't the coils Pay with PayPal.
Then go into your order history, then cancel that order made and click the instant Gift Certificate part (excellent thing I think with FT is that part of the site)
You then get an instant Gift Cert for said amount, and use that to get the coils you want. Done that plenty of times on FT when PayPal plays these games, great way to get over their silliness.

djs did you just edit a bit out of your post? Initially, yes.. I think. Interested to read your post though Karma. Maybe I should look into a new China-only (spare?) Credit Card? Or try out -V- idea.
