First off, Amazon have made Kindle the default for books. I have a Kindle, but have bought very few. I more often buy the real thing. This Christmas I wanted to buy three actual books as gifts. All three were auto-sent to my Kindle (two of them at a price considerably more than the equivalent print editions). I cancelled the orders within a minute, but it takes 14 days for the refund to go through. What?

Secondly, Paypal. I hardly ever use them and have no outstanding debts. They just sent me an email entitled: "Settle up!" The first line of text accused me of being Scrooge. The gist was that I should give money through Paypal to friends and relatives this Christmas. Why?

Sounds more like a problem between the chair and the keyboard. Than amazon and Paypal

welcome to 2018.
 
Trying to be the big boy, telling the lads in the club "iv ordered stuff off that there internet, christmas is sorted"... little did he know the bully boys Amazon had other ideas.

I'm in Africa. Christmas shopping options are: a) limited to say the least, and b) there's no viable postal system. 'That there internet' should solve the problem. It doesn't because of the greedy bastards that run the dominant companies on it.

Amazingly, most of the people being sodomized by them apparently seem to enjoy it.
