yes.I have been knocked out of btc online without explanation.
water and sewage has signed me up and dropped me out of their system multiple times.
BEC too, after several years my online account is finally working.

This is all made possible because many in the population are not computer literate and many in the workforce are not computer literate.

At work,I take cover and think twice about walking through certain rooms because they will call you to --help them-- ttranslation: do their work for them.

simple, the amazon products arrive in a distribution center in the himalayas, and their local postal service picks it up from there and delivers.

actually i have ordered from countries in that region in the past three months. the seller creates an electronic ticket for dhl to pick it up, DHL brings it to new jersey and passes it on to USPS and informs me of the the new tracking number. USPS delivers to the courier in florida.the whole process is 5-7 days.

If you order with a bahamas address, DHL and/or FEDEx will charge you some ridiculous brokerage fee,more than you would pay the courier.

If they delivered in care of the bahamas postal service, after traveling for 3 days they would take weeks to send you the notice.

back in the early 90s, a relative decided to surprise me wtih a telegram on my birthday. i received it 3 weeks later. lol,
