“Sir, this is First National Total Landscaping”
Keep in mind this is “X, the everything app”. Musk expects it to be your one stop on the internet for everything, including online banking.
Twitter. Twitter twitter twitter.
Have you ever tried to wire money? Its fucking hard. Even the banks give you the wrong info. It usually takes me 1 month on average with about 4 failed transfers before it goes through
This is a bank problem
It takes 1 day to wire money and it works on the first try, what are you talking about?
Have you tried wiring money to South America?
Ah, that’s a different ball game all together. Is that even possible? Last time I tried I had to wire to a US account that the Argentinian bank has in the US and they somehow transferred the money to my account. Still, it took a couple of days and it worked without a hitch.
Usually the process is:
- Go to SA bank. Be very clear about all of the data fields that my bank is asking me, and ask them to tell me EXACTLY what to enter. Get assurance that anything is fine.
- Send transfer
- Get transfer back to my bank
- Call my bank and ask what went wrong. They blame SA bank
- Call SA bank and ask what went wrong. They blame other bank and tell me that something they told me was wrong, and maybe I should try changing X from Y.
- GOTO 2 about 4 more times until it finally goes through.
Yeah, I’m not surprised. I didn’t think it was even possible. Whenever I have to transfer money to my bank account in Argentina I use crypto. Much easier.
This is entirely on Twitter. For your average person, sending a court-ordered fine to the wrong institution means it hasn’t been paid.
Plus, theres the fact that Musk is completely untrustworthy. After all the effort it’s taken to get Twitter to pay up, I wouldn’t restore their ability to earn income from Brazilians until the fine was secured thoroughly and correctly.
