[Announcement] Temporary Payment Method - P****s.com

thefireflies · 05:31 PM

Hi all

Logged into Alltunes today and noticed a flashing '?' in the top right of the screen. I clicked on it and an Alltunes web page opened, saying:

'Offer of Payment
Administration wrote:
Dear user,
if you have a valid Visa Card and want to pay with it for the service please let us know.
Kind regards, administration.'

I then logged in to MP3Sparks & went to replenish my balance. There were 3 options:
1) ????? (can't remember what said, but no longer there)
2) Credit card - not working
3) allPay Card

I took option 1, had option of $10 & $25 refill, then redirected to secure P****s.com website (didn't have to create a seperate account), entered a unit quantity (i.e. 5x £8.11) my credit card (many options visa/mastercard, etc, + also PayPal) & address details and pressed order. Within minutes the money had shown up in Alltunes & MP3Sparks. Hoorah!! P****s stated that this transaction will appear as 'Memphis Members' on my creditcard.

As typing this post I went to MP3Sparks to get the refill option name and the option is no longer there? This must be a temporary payment option that Memphis Members (i'm not a member) is allowing for some AllofMP3/MP3Sparks customers?

If you see this option I suggest filling your account!!

Regards
Steve

It works.
Can post lots of screenshots/details if wanted.

rolly, can you post the details - I just looked & only the 2 usual options available!

Worked for me too.

On the refill balance page, I chose option 1.

Was redirected to another site - plimus.com

I placed my order with a credit card, and within 2 minutes my balance on mp3sparks was updated.

Seems like this might be a one time deal. Once I refilled, the option I saw before was no longer available.

Here is what it looked like:

Hey everyone I just noticed this payment method too. Actually I was about to post about it here but "thefireflies" beat me to the punch lol. I wonder why its only a one time payment. Kind of odd if u ask me. Haven't actually tried it yet myself but i may try it later this week (if it doesn't disappear on me

). Well at least theres a way to pay by credit card now sort of...

Nope, still just Credit Card or Allpay options after I cleared out the cache & refreshed the page! is this a geographic thing? I'm in the UK (not Ukraine)

They have been offering payment card options for months that have not panned out
to members at random.This will not propably pan out so DON'T post it here.

Thanks

They have been doing this for months to "random" cutomers.Please keep this
to yourself as not to interfere with others chances.

These payment options do not last.

Please do not get peoples hopes up to high for payment options.

I used this payment method just seconds ago to fund my mp3Sparks account, and it worked to perfection.

Like others have said, however, it seems to be a 1-time method since the option has now vanished from the list of payment options on my account. Beware of that.

People - hold off buying any PINs from anyone.

MP3sparks have a tentative relationship with a credit card provider, and PINs are no longer being accepted as a payment method.

I got burnt buying PINs, but MP3sparks disconnected allpay after I purchased my PINs an before I could redeem them.

I don't want anyone else to get burnt.
