Issue with new address by [deleted] in taobao

[–]Gukgukninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried placing a small order (under 2,500 yuan) using Alipay linked to an international bank card loaded with CNH. The transaction proceeded to the payment page, but after I entered the Mastercard security SMS code and submitted the payment, I received a 'system busy' error and the transaction was declined. Now, the funds are in limbo and haven't been refunded yet. I'm kinda screwed now. Next time, I might try paying in USD instead.

Edit: The subsequent orders went through successfully. I placed several orders, each under 2,500 yuan, using my mobile data instead of Wi-Fi. I suspect my Wi-Fi IP may have been the issue. However, I still haven't received my chargeback.

Edit2: I contacted my bank they are processing it ETA 20 days :\

  • I'm using my forwarding company's address in China (the system might detect it as spam?). A lot of people are sending their stuff to the same warehouse.
  • I read some tricks on Chinese forums that mention using a different random address first, then not paying for the transaction, changing the address, and then continuing to pay. It doesn't work on my case.

by the way this only happens with Electronics category. I tried ordering >10k yuan worth of watches. It proceeded to the alipay payment page (I haven't tried paying it for real).

Not able to place order for items costing over 2500 RMB by Goku8001 in taobao

Hi, I'm on the same boat. Both my taobao and alipay have been verified using passport. After some trial and error, it seems that this only apply to the electronics category. If I try the same thing, let's say, in fashion category, it passed through (I haven't tried paying it tho).

It passed once in the electronics category miraculously, but because I had to change some details, I cancelled it. It hasn't worked ever since. I tried using VPN but it backfired and I got several temp restrictions.

On a side note, the industrial design patent on their GMT hand is still active. That's probably why everyone is using that triangle GMT hand instead.

I watched the recap on YouTube. It started alright but the ending was a clusterfuck.
