On a slight tangent, is there a trick to getting SkypeOut to take
Visa? I was trying to buy some SkypeOut minutes (to call from
ThinkPad to PSTN, i.e. regular phones) and my orders kept being
flagged as "cancelled". The FAQ and the help desk say this means I
mis-typed something (!!) but I've been very careful to type the
credit card number, the address info, the CVV code off the back,
and my Verified by Visa password, perfectly.
They'll also take MasterCard, but I don't have one in C$ and my US$
one isn't activated. They don't take Amex and don't take PayPal
(!).
Thanks!
