This happened to a friend a few months ago. He has a SaaS business, working remotely out of France (uses Stripe + US bank accounts as he lived in US for sometime).

One day suddenly, he got locked out of his bank account (a major US bank) and the only way to restore the access was to walk into a branch physically. This meant dropping all work and flying to US at a day's notice, assuming you are granted a Visa. He was fortunate that the customer service listened (though they were not the politest people on the planet). After jumping a few hoops and following some unconventional methods of verification, the access was restored, but the situation was scary for a few days.

Is it like the Chrome "People" (or profiles or user) feature ? Suggesting that "user won’t need to use multiple browsers" seems like a problem that didn't exist if you used chrome.

Nice ! Love how the quarters accumulate (reference to your $.25 pricing per badge)

> I wonder what features Dropbox can offer that won't inevitably be surpassed by Google Drive, iCloud Drive, and OneDrive.

It's strange but it seems like others aren't trying hard enough or simply aren't interested in making a great product. My experience with dropbox has been better than with any other cloud backup service. For instance, I can move my cloud folder around without forcing a re-sync of the entire data. I can manually copy data to a new computer & it'll be magically sync'd without re-downloading everything. Dropbox also does a great job of incremental updates on binaries.

My biggest gripe with the previous versions was the amount of memory it consumed (v 10). Hopefully they've resolved it.

Why would you call this garbage & bigotry. There seems to be evidence supporting Churchill's attitude towards Indians:

"Churchill’s excuse — currently being peddled by his family and supporters — was Britain could not spare the ships to transport emergency supplies, but Mukerjee has unearthed documents that challenge his claim. She cites official records that reveal ships carrying grain from Australia bypassed India on their way to the Mediterranean"

&

"Churchill’s hostility toward Indians has long been documented. At a War Cabinet meeting, he blamed the Indians themselves for the famine, saying they “breed like rabbits”. His attitude toward Indians may be summed up in his words to Amery: “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.” On another occasion, he insisted they were “the beastliest people in the world next to the Germans”.

I wouldn't want my e-commerce store to fulfill orders for a compromised account without talking & confirming some key details with the customer. This HN post is testament to some funky ordering going on.

My experience has been positive with Amazon and there has been situations where they've gone out of their way to make the customer happy. I'm fairly confident that a situation like yours can be resolved with Amazon over phone.

This is a logistics issue: shipping to an unverified address before receiving back the original product. Amazon should be solely responsible for it.

> email has "been hacked".

But that's probably a big reason to _not_ let the orders through.
