Google Pay Working For Me Again

I was never so glad to see this show up on my credit card statement. The only way to pay with a credit card for YouTube Premium is if the card is used with Google Pay. You can't just normally add a card, instead it auto ads it to Google Pay when you do.

For around 2 months it has NOT been working on the one account, but on my other 2 Google accounts the same card worked fine. Go you think I could get them at Google to actually listen to that? Nope. They kept asking if the card was authorized to work with Google Pay, the answer is OBVIOUSLY.

I read to remove the card then re-add it, well it would not remove. I had to kill the entire Google Pay account instead and set it up for a second time. The card word not add at this point, it kept giving an error that the card could not be validated.

A couple of days ago I decided to try it again and fired up the app and took a picture of the card with it and POOF it worked fine. I'm very sure it has literally nothing to do with the people at the support center as they seemed baffled and kept asking questions I'd answered.

Not one clue if it works at point of sale, but I'm never going to use my dang phone to try and pay for something at a store. So I'm happy it's working and I don't need to mess with PayPal for it, although that is the backup payment at the moment.

The forums had several people with the same issue, the card just stopped working and nothing fixed it. So I'm guessing some transient bug of some kind. Oh well, I just hope it keeps working.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
