So, I got rejected by an online merchant today because the address I provided for my credit card didn’t match the one with the credit card company. I looked online, and lo and behold I appear to have a new address. <\/p>\n
So I called the credit card company and asked (a) please change it back (b) why would this happen. According to them, they automatically believe what the USPS tells them. I had a change of address, so they changed me.<\/p>\n
So I called the USPS and got dick-all of a runaround. The first lady I talked to couldn’t find any record of my existence. I don’t live at either the correct address or the wrong one. There has never been a forwarding address for me. I let her go and called back. Then I got a nice lady who seemed competent and offered to put in a report of a fraudulent change of address for me. We got to the very end, and she told me that her computer had locked up and I would have to call back and work with a different agent. Buh bye. <\/p>\n
I’m calming myself with deep and steady breathing before giving them a third try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
