If I Send money to friends and family can I reclaim it?

Not via paypal no as you sent a gift and not a payment for goods. BUT if you fund your paypal payment via a card you "may" be able to get your credit card issuer to assist you but even they may not if they know it was not a payment for goods. I would also personally not deal with any seller that wanted to evade their seller fees and negate my buyer protection by telling me to pay that way. ******************************************* I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.
Marking one of my replies as a solution would be appreciated if I sorted your problem.

Friends and Family can't see iCloud Photo Streams

I've posted several photos to several photos streams on iCloud and most people that I've invited cannot see photos in the albums - they say they're all empty. One sister is on a mac on 10.10.1 just like I am and can't see any photos. Another sister has same setup and CAN see them. Any ideas???

Tell your friends they will take a few moments to load after they accept the invitation.

Can friends and family option be disputed or charged back ever?

Hello I was wondering if someone sends money using "friends or family" option, can it ever be charged back or disputed? In the past I have sold online game items (Ingame currency and items) for real money. I always give the buyer what he paid for and what we agreed to. Now a few times the buyer will dispute the charge, deliberately scamming me after I have gave them the item / gold. I literally have no protection because I'm selling an online item, therefore there's no shipping. I'll sell $50 in gold (in game currency to the buyer, and I'll give it to him. Then a few days later he'll dispute it on purpose to scam me because he knows he'll get away. I HATE scammers, and I'm tired of getting scammed.I'm tired of getting ripped off, and losing the items that I worked hard for to get.
So I'm wondering if someone sends me money via friends and family option can it be disputed or charged back? It seems like this is my only option. I'm a honest seller, and I always give the buyer what he wants. I'm tired of getting scammed because paypal always goes with the buyer. So I'm down $50 and they just keep the items I gave them. I REALLY need to know. So if someone sends money using the option friends and family, can it be disputed?

1. You are not allowed to sell and ask a buyer to pay using the friends / family option, if paypal realise that is what you are doing you risk your account being limited. 2. A person can't dispute a friends / family payment BUT they can do a chargeback directly via their credit card company if they used a c.c. to fund their paypal payment. ************************************** I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.

Paypal Scam: Friends and Family Payment for a goods transaction

Has Paypal ever assisted anyone who was scammed by being asked for Friends and Family Payment for a goods transaction?Paypal is very aware of this scam, for the average user the first time they've even heard of this time of transaction is when another member asks for them to send them money in that form. Usually something like "hey, can you send the money as friends and family? I can drop the price a couple bucks since I won't be charged the fee." Paypal can easily eliminate this problem by requiring a person to check a box acknowledging, This payment is not for a good transaction. I am aware I have no ability to dispute this transaction once sent.So why has Paypal made this so easy for scammers?What actions will Paypal take if there is a problem?What are the chances a State Attorney General might take some action to make the two bullet points above happen?

It's a violation of PayPal's User Agreement for a seller to ask buyers to pay using the "friends and family" payment method. Here's the applicable user agreement text... 4.1 Receiving Personal Payments. If you are selling goods or services, you may not ask the buyer to send you a Personal Payment for the purchase.

Pending / Approval of Friends and Family -- no warning, no follow up, lost on a technicality?

Hi,
I recently was looking at a Verizon One-Bill (all 21 pages) and saw that we were being charged for going over minutes. I found this odd since my wife and I looked at our calling detail in December and added the top 10 phone numbers.
When I signed on today it turns out that none of the Friends and Family changes were ever applied since I didn't log back in and approve them even though we have 1 userid and password just like every other family account, electric, auto insurance, OTHER ACCOUNTS IN THE ONE BILL PLAN. We made the changes while looking at my wife's phone number since she uses 90% of the family minutes but it appears I had to go back to my phone # and approve.
When I call customer service the woman was nice but when I explained that we were charged hundreds of dollars even though the F&F numbers were sitting there not used and that I did not know nor was I notified that I had to approve the account.  I asked if there was any way we cold be adjusted, again, since the numbers were there in pending status and I could onto figure out why someone would maliciously add phone numbers to F&F so why would there be a reason to approve them.
The CR that we actually had 3 accounts not 1 and when I asked her why the 3 accounts have the same login and password, she seemed shocked that we only used 1 login and password when we could have had 3. Then when I asked if there was a chance for a credit, that we have been customers for over a decade and she explained again that the changes were made on a 2ndary account and the burden was on us to know the process and apparently she thought the real issue was that I could not grasp the concept of multiple accounts under 1 family plan since she explained more slowly 2 more times.
wouldn't say anything if there was a email or text stating I have F&F in pending but there is not and you need to check the F&F to find out.   This is despite the fact that Verizon sends text every other day and my other accounts send text for all of their payment issues, as well as emails.
Has this happened to anyone else?    Can someone explain to me how, as the CR later stated, multiple accounts for each family member is the norm and not the exception even though every internet payment account we have has 1 user id and password.. 1 account for ever other utility, service, loan account we process online.
Thanks in advance

Verizon does let you set up different MyVerizon log ins for each number on your family plan. The account of the primary line/account holder has full access to all of the information on the plan, and the ability to make changes, add F&F, and generally administer the account. The secondary accounts can only access information for their specific line, cannot make most changes to the account, and cannot add F&F numbers (they can only suggest them). What they can do is manage media purchases and back-up assistant entries for the line that the account is associated with.
If you used BA or made media purchases for your secondary lines, you probably created those accounts (or perhaps they were created for you by the Verizon staff who helped you set up your phones?). You may have never logged in to them again, most people don't need them very often.
It is possible for the wrong MyVerizon account to be tagged as the "owner" account, leading to the wrong login having administration priveleges. It's pretty simple to sort out, you just have to call in and ask for the correct MyVerizon login to be designated as the account owner.
It sounds like you were logged in to a secondary MyVerizon account when you made the changes, and since those accounts don't have the priveleges to make changes to the F&F numbers, they would not have been applied to your account. In terms of getting a credit, some reps are nicer than others, you might try again. The long story short though is that Verizon isn't obligated to give you a credit and they may not.

Friends and Family vs M2M

Ok so i have been unble to get a straight answer from anyone about this so this is my last esort before i go up to the verizon store yet again and wait an hour just to ask them a question. So...i have a texting plan of 400 texts per month. I have found that with this texting plan i can text anyone in the verizon network for free, BUT i also have one friends and family number who is not in the verizon network. I know this means that i can call this person unlimited, but does this include text?
Please can someone help me or give me an email i can send a message to.

No your F&F numbers are for incoming and outgoing calls to that number. Text messaging is not included and texts sent to that person and received from them will come out of your allotment.

BT Friends and Family details obtained by a 3rd pa...

In this article in the Guardian today, I read:
One former reporter claimed that Mulcaire was used on almost every story, if not for hacking into voicemail then for accessing confidential databases: "The paper was paying Glenn Mulcaire £2,000 a week, and they wanted their money's worth. For just about every story, they rang Glenn. It wasn't just tapping. It was routine. "Even if it was just a car crash or a house fire on a Saturday, they'd call Glenn, and he'd come back with ex-directory phone numbers, the BT list of friends and family and their addresses, lists of numbers called from their mobile phones.
How long has BT known about this? How seriously are they taking it? If it's true, then it's yet another piece of evidence that questions the credibility of claims by any organisation that "your PII is guaranteed safe with us".

Thank you DS. I am concerned about this alleged leaking of PII, and am considering my options. I'd like to get a few facts first, one of which is whether or not the whole BT Friends and Family list and addresses was compromised. The ball is in BT's court over that one, and I think they should have given a straight answer by now.
I intend to ask the Guardian if they stand by the veracity of that report, and the identity of the former NoW employee who made that claim, although they are bound to protect that source I suppose.
That's a good FoI suggestion. Thanks for the link.
No problem at all and I'm glad to of helped you
I too am slightly concerned for 2 reasons. One was that BT set up F 'n' F on my account without my knowledge (IIRC it's a chargeable service so I had this removed earlier this year). I don't know how long this was set up on my account and I can't remember if I allocated any phone numbers. The other thing is that my in laws still (AFAIK) have F 'n' F set up on their BT phone account and therefore depending on what info was obtained, then my EX-DIRECTORY details may be out there.
As you are the OP of this thread and you still have not received a straight answer, maybe an email to the BT CEO (sorry forum rules prevent me from posting his email address) could be beneficial.

Where are Friends and Family confimations sent?

I just set up our friends and family list, and it tells me it's going to send approval to the account holder. Is it through email or text?

I believe it sends the request to their MyVerizon account directly. They may not get a notification, but should see it in their MyVerizon when they log in and view their Friends and Family numbers. I'd contact them and let them know you've submitted numbers for them to approve.

I created a slide show in imovie for my daughters 21st with voice overs from friends and family which was all working fine but now the voice recordings are not playing at all. Obviously some setting has changed but I can't find which one.

Have a Friends and Family plan. I have unlimited data and want to keep it. Questions on what I can and can not do with account changes.

Ok,
So I am on Friends and Family 2000minutes and unlimited Text.
4 phones.
My phone has Unlimited Data and Hotspot
Other 3 do not have any data.
I am curious what I can do and can't do that will keep keep the plan as is and not force things to share everything.
I am allowed to have 5 phones under this plan. I am curious about adding and deleting phones.
I did try and add a 5th phone. When I tried to activate a 5th phone online it would not let me do it. Tried to get me to change plans.
Here are a few scenarios that I see coming up in the future.
I would like to add a 5th phone. My father has an account and I would like to roll him into my plan instead of his own account. I have already done this once before many years ago with no problem with 2 of the lines that I currently have. Is this possible or is that enough to trigger the move share everything scenario.
Second. how about removing a line from my plan?
One of my numbers is for an 18YO that wants to be more independent and have their own account. Can I down the road either transfer that line and number to its own account which would be share everything (I do understand that). Or can I delete that line from the account without triggering the share everything scenario?
Also it seems when I look online I can change data plans currently three phones are on data block. Can I actually change them to a data plan within the Friends and family or is the Share everything scenario triggered. What about if I change them to a smart phone from their basic/feature phone. I know I can't get unlimited data but can I still get them on my friends and family tiered data plan?
What is up.
Thank You

yes to everything; you can add a line (up to 5 total for Family Share), drop a line, upgrade a basic line to a smartphone (and then add a tiered data plan) and stay on your current calling plan ... it may be easier done in your local Corporate Verizon store, though ... just be sure they don't try to switch you to Share Everything if that's not what you want

Why are profile pictures of friends and family not displaying in my facebook anymore

Something has happened to the display of friends and family profile pictures when they post. It is just written text and I cannot get their picture to display in conjunction with post as it was before.

See [[Images or animations do not show]]
*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

Friends and Family

Happy new years guys...
Here's the deal...like most people I have all my music set-up with smart playlists so that the higher rated songs play more often and "Last Played" is not in the last 2 months. My question is this...Is there a way to lock songs on my Ipod to prevent friends and family from changing my ratings and also to prevent songs that they listen to from updating the "Last Played" date so that I won't miss listening to any songs on my smart-lists because of another user? When I mean lock I don't mean "Screen Lock" or something that prevents people from using my Ipod, I have no problem letting them use my Ipod to listen to whatever they want but what I hate is that I always find that my ratings are always changed by my little cousins, lol. I know that the best solution is to not let anyone use my Ipod, but I wanted to know if there was a way around this so that we all can be happy. Thanks a bunch in advance for any helpful tips!

From digging around I don't see an option built-in to the iPod itself. Maybe with a 6G version Apple would consider adding multiple profiles to an iPod, but alas an iPod is considered a personal item that it would take a good arm twist for Apple to consider a move like that. Sounds like a handy feature especially on a video iPods which can hold a ton of music.

If a Friends and Family number is set to forward calls, does it count as a Friends and Family call?

I just want to make sure this is correct and that I'm not misinterpreting what I'm seeing on my call summary (I just started doing this, so haven't gotten an actual bill yet).
I have a non-Verizon Friends and Family number that I set up to forward to my Verizon cell phone.
The on-line call summary list is showing these as coming from the originating number.
I thought that since the number is actually going to my Friends and Family number, and then being forwarded from there, that it would show up as a Friends and Family call, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
If anyone could verify how calls going to a Friends and Family number and then being forwarded to a Verizon phone should be categorized, I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Friends and Family numbers

I can't find where to enter or change my Friends and Family telephone numbers.
Where has this feature gone?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It apparently ended in April 2010.
from user john56: It ended when free evening and weekend calls and any-time call packages became popular as they provide you with free calls rather then reduced price calls from friends ad family.
Friends and family mobile exisits though and gives you reduced prices on all mobile numbers. iirc 7p instead of 13p per minute.
