If you were planning to buy a membership to a wetlook site, and "authorize.net" is one of the payment options, use one of the other payment options, or you'll get left high and dry.
Sunday morning, I wanted to buy a membership and I made the mistake of using "authorize.net" instead of PayPal.
Here is a screenshot of my bank statement (Don't worry, there's nothing useful for you on here, I left out the names and numbers), and the "authorize.net" transaction in question is the one for $45.00 on the second line down. http://www.flickr.com/photos/lakemonster/4093569725/sizes/o/
So, authorize.net can apparently bill my bank account, but they can't send me an e-mail receipt, and the money gets lost between my bank account and the webmaster. (This is scientific proof of black holes.)
If that's bad enough, I can't find anywhere on authorize.net's website to find the transaction by number by entering credit or e-mail information.
If you do have problems with them, forget about calling authorize.net, the phone number my bank gave me for authorize.net's customer support turned out to be an insurance salesman from Alabama.
Anyhow, I probably won't be looking at any wetlook this week, because the bank said that if it doesn't get resolved by the end of the week the charge simply disappears by the end of the week, or authorize.net gets it's head out of it's ass and releases the money. If that happens, fine, I'll enjoy the material but if not, I'll find a different website to enjoy. I sent the webmaster of the site (which I won't mention by name), and inquiry about it and the response I got was "Nothing from Auth.net....Can't provide a tracking number...Seemsa to me you are trying to pull something...Doesn't work here....Receips are given by all charges for proof..."
Hey, I like is stuff, but if that's his attitude, I just don't need to make him $45 richer. There's more than one game in town.
