Well that might work in theory, but not in the real world. Was at YCAB twice recently and the card swipe "declined" all cards offered. Press the help button on the bowser, no help. Call the help-line by phone, listen to recorded message about how (large Dutch multi-national oil company) values my call, then eventually a real person answers.
Chimbu, the same thought crossed my mind today as I stood there reading the operating instructions & who to contact if something went wrong. What the hell are a company that is in the capital city several hundred k's away going to do? With my installation I had to fix things myself if something went wrong, or (very rarely I might add) get hubby to give me a hand.
