Please submit an acceptable form of payment from the list above, as you have in the past

Lmao the subtle shade

no acceptable form of payment has been processed on this account.

But my coupons tho.

[–] satanmat 17 points 4 days ago

this isn't working at the moment.

Yeah and it won't going forward either… come on one more step and you'll get there

They just didn't use the right coupons, rookie mistake

Maybe they forgot to sign their name in all caps?

[–] homesweethomeMrL 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

at a 45 degree angle. they probably did it at 43 or 46 or some other newb mistake.

It has to be in red too

[–] credo 5 points 4 days ago

Oh- I bet the coupon wasn’t certified too. Easy mistake to make, thinking the envelope certification also covered the contents.

I like the old skool redaction that you could still easily piece together to get the address...

Yeah, you have a city and the last few digits of an America 5 digit post code. It seems like that would take it down to a handful of possible candidates right away.

So many of these people. I'm starting to think that there are people who this works for, but it's literally 1 in a million and it's the company making a mistake and missing something or them just falling into a crack.

So I figure the same chance of that happening without sending a coupon or treasury note or some other made up thing.

I asked a sovereign citizen expert if she knew how many there were in the world and nobody knows. Which makes sense as most of them get indignant if you call them a sovereign citizen, and some of them just dip their toes into the ideology a little. It's never been documented that it works for any of them, although some of them claim it does.

There has to be a few who've been written off as more trouble than they're worth, and the debt has been abandoned.

Maybe, I'll ask her. Generally the answer seems to be no when I've looked.

The secret is to use the right coupon. My partner gave me a book of love coupons for that love holiday (it's coming up, don't forget) last year. I used it to get a free back-rub from my water company. The CEO showed up at my door and did a solid 50 minutes (standard for a 1h rub).

It's all about knowing the system.

I am helpless with mirth.

I'm surprised they didn't reply with something super dumb like, "You're not a water company, you're Newport News, and I didn't subscribe to your newspaper."

Why is that believe still going at all? This has NEVER worked...
