F$&*&cking Clay Aiken F%^%^*cking Fanclub

This is absolutely unacceptable. We know a lot of fans wanted to renew their memberships. However, it was YOUR responsibility to test your software before the renewal date. When a charge may or may not have gone through please don’t post a message saying “transaction cancelled-please try again” because it might make people…you know…TRY AGAIN instead of waiting to see if it had actually gone through.

So, all of the fans were clicking away until it went through and today they are waking up to thousands of dollars worth of charges. So when we email to complain, we get a form lettter back stating that the multiple transactions were cancelled (although the banks and cc companies don’t seem to have gotten this memo) and the bank will credit the money in up to 15 business days.

Now, personally, I’m not in any distress because I used a credit card, and I can report them to the fraud department (because charging me multiple times without acknowledging it is fraud in my book-and BTW I only got ONE confirmatory e-mail) but the people who used debit cards are screwed. Their checks are bouncing because the bank has debited the money and can’t credit it back for up to 15 business days.

You people have no business running anything! Are you planning to refund the interest for people who had to borrow money or take out a line of credit to cover their bills? F##%&#&ckers!

By “We” you mean you were one of these, right?

I think the “psycho” part of “psychobunny” has become a little less obtrusive…

Clay Aiken Fan Club?

I expect you are either a creative genius who spurs others to great come-backs or are ill-prepared for the collective sarcasm of the SDMB.

Could as well be both, no?

I say mad props to psychobunny just for having the guts to admit to it! :smiley:

…so they finally get to Grandma’s Brothel. The guy knocks on the door and someone opens a slot and says “whaddya want?” The guy says “I wanna get fucked at Grandma’s Brothel.” “OK,” comes the reply. “Slip $100 under the door.”

Ten minutes go by, and nothing happens so he knocks on the door again.

“Waddya want?”
“I wanna get fucked at Grandma’s Brothel!”
“What, again?”

Amazon charged my debit account $80 for that stupid “Amazon Prime” thing–the day AFTER I cancelled it. My rent check then bounced, which cost me $60 in fines. I’m still waiting to hear from Amazon about the $140 they owe me.

Bring it on! Yes I love Clay Aiken’s voice. Yes, I’ve seen him in concert and bought his CDs. No, I don’t want to marry him and have his children (besides, I’m pretty sure he’s gay). That’s my guilty pleasure. I’m smart enough to know that if you time out on an internet purchase you see if it went through before you try again. The message they sent clearly indicated that the charge had not gone through and told you to click again.

Now-anybody want to diss my musical choices some more? I’m a big girl-I can take it. Just make sure you’ve thoroughly vetted YOUR CD collection and ipod before casting stones.

yes, I’m talking to you with the Air Supply CD in the back of your closet

Who is running the messageboard?

Pretty sure? I’m pretty sure the moon’s not going to land on my head while I sleep tonight. Clay’s gayness, however, is absolute.

Agree, Clay’s gayness is absolute, which brings up a question I have which I guess I should open another thread on, but anyway…

If he ever admits to being gay, has he comitted fraud, ala Milli Vanilli, to the thousands of young teenage girls (99% of his fan base) who buy his albums because they are in love with them and think, maybe, one day, if they meet that Clay will marry them? Obviously if he ever comes out it will be career suicide, and him staying in the closet makes perfect sense, but what about the 12 year olds he is not being honest with?

In a way, its no different that a celeb not publicizing his marraige for the same reason, so scratch the above, maybe my anti Clay bias is clouding my judgment.

Poor deluded one. Don’t you know that Clay’s fanbase is middle-aged women who think of him like the son they wish they’d had?

Has he ever denied being gay? Just wondering.

The Chicago Reader?

If it’s in the back of my closet, it means I’m not actively listening to it, now am I? :smiley:

Well, if you’re listening to it back there so nobody can see you listening to it…

See, that’s why I like my iPod. No one has to know I’m listening to Air Supply!

Making him the Liberace of the new millennium?

You would not be the first to make that comparison…
