Because you have played silly buggers with the subject lines. One doesn't search in Google on subject lines, one searches on content. I don't need to search by Google, I can step back through past sequences of postings. You've messed that up by playing silly buggers with the subject line. I posted it - you find it. Or more usefully, one searches on one's own PC if one is the sender of the non-existent post. You ****ed up the subject lines deliberately - it's now become your problem. -- Craig http://www.wazu.jp/ 1,239 Unicode fonts for 82 written language groups: Price your own web plan: http://www.wazu.jp/hosting/ |

Greg Procter wrote: You mean Visa and BNZ's Visa are seperate banking entities??? You don't find it strange that Visa hasn't sued the BNZ for stealing it's trade name??? What is "BNZ's Visa"? The BNZ has a Visa agency just like most other banks. It has a Visa logo on it, which indicates that it will be accepted world-wide by merchants who have so indicated. BNZ pays Visa a fee for that privilege. So you're saying Visa would be the agent of the BNZ in that situation and BNZ pays Visa a fee??? No, I'm saying that BNZ pays Visa a licensing fee. So, let's see: BNZ uses Visa's name and system for a licencing fee! So I could pay you a fee and use your name for any purpose I see fit, nefarious or otherwise. Where do I send the cheque???? Mis-direction ... When you shop at a merchant with that card, you enter into a contract with that merchant. Not with Visa. Absolutely. But in addition the merchant activates a contract with Visa. (not BNZ) There is *no* contract between the merchant and Visa. So why does the contract have "Visa" written throughout??? Because it has to do with the acceptance of Visa branded cards. But why don't you read who the *parties* to the contract are? It's rather more than the "Visa" brand on the card! The transaction is entered into a terminal that is owned by the merchant's bank. Not by Visa. By his bank. The bank is the agent for Visa. - therefore the transaction is with Visa. Is this all to complicated for you? The merchant has no contract with Visa. OK, so the merchant sends his payment to Visa without any form of contract - you must have a lot of gullible merchants where you live! The merchant doesn't send money to Visa. True, the merchant's customer sends advice to make payment from their Visa account to the merchant's bank. The merchant sells the transaction to his bank. No, the merchant sells the transaction to Visa. (do try to keep up) No he doesn't, Greg. The merchant has no contract with Visa. OK, so the merchant sends his payment to Visa without any form of contract - you must have a lot of gullible merchants where you live! Merchants don't send payments to Visa. So exactly to whose bank does the merchant send the customer's payment advice??? You claim to be a Visa merchant. Why don't you read your contract? Let's say it's HKBC. He does not sell it to Visa. Yes he does. You claim to be a Visa merchant. Why don't you read your contract? No, I claimed that I was in the past a merchant with a Visa payment contract. Liar. On 3 December you said: CW: You've stated that you accept credit cards. CW: Might I ask with which credit card company you have a signed CW: agreement? GP: Visa.(NZ) Sure, I get feed up with correcting your lapses of grammar and let those that seem irrelevant slip through - otherwise I'd be cortrecting every post you make instead of answering your points. snip GP: My credit card and my POS machine are from different organisations. That holds true. You're just making it up again, aren't you Greg? The transaction has been 'acquired' by HKBC. HKBC is an agent of Visa in that transaction. No it's no, Greg. So nobody is an agent of Visa? All the banks send them money for fun? I carefully described the payment flow for you Greg. Which part did you not understand? Craig, you're a ****wit if you think you described the payment flow correctly. He has a contract with HKBC that says they will acquire his transactions. That's possibly true. Visa's Agent, HKBC passes the transaction to the merchant's bank, that presumably being HKBC. Eh? Now you're really getting confused. Not at all - however I can see that you are. Do you imagine that HKBC putts all the money it gets into one big piggy bank and then doles it out if anyone asks nicely? No. Why would I think that? I carefully described the payment flow for you Greg. Which part did you not understand? I understand what you sead in it's entirety - you've failed to understand the process. HKBC submit the transaction for 'interchange' to Visa. This function gets the transaction to your bank, BNZ. Visa, once a day, works out the nett positions of each of its member banks, and settles each bank's position (which could be credit or debit). But Visa isn't a bank, so it does this by way of instructions to a holding bank (Citi in the US, but other banks in different regions), which has an account for each of the other banks. Now, your bank has the transaction. It bills you. You pay your bank. The cycle is complete. Never mind, you don't need to understand. What part of my explanation is not clear to you Greg? The bit where you stupidly imagine that the associated banks aren't agents for Visa. I think I'll give up on this one. You gave up on trying to understand ages ago. It's like talking to a child. I've gone to some lengths to fully describe the payment cycle. Something you've never understood. And something that, from the look of it, you never will. Your understanding of the processes is quite flawed. |

"Standard Gauge" is 4' 8 1/2" or 1435mm. Why did you claim it NZ used standard gauge and the CIA Factbook lied? You know damn well NZ's tracks are narrower. |

You're claiming that yanks _can_ spend funds from the USa in Cuba??? The part of the legislation I read was quite specific on that point, yanks may not spend funds from the USa in Cuba.. WRONG again. IF you don't understand, go directly to the OFAC website and read the information. |

You want to tell me about USDA so you tell me what USDA is. - see how that works? A source was cited. It is not up to me to explain the full details of what they do or who they are. If you don't know, look it up. I doubt you even went to the damn link. |

Mr. Travel, my point is that the New Zealand railway system (like South Africa's) is not normally classed as "Narrow Gauge" because that term has connotations that go well beyond the distance between the rails. Uh, no. In standard railway terms, gauge is the width of the track. |
