Here's something that worries me. I followed a lot of the advice here to buy some books from Fictionwise, but what I got doesn't seem to have happened to anyone else. I ordered about $35 of ebooks - using my UK address, with country set to US. Everything went peachy keen until I checked my online mastercard account a few minutes later and found I'd been billed for ... £35 pounds UK! That's over sixty dollars US.
I have no idea how that came about, especially since I've not had any problems doing this before. And no, I haven't written to Fictionwise yet to ask them what's going on, in case they have an issue with me using a UK credit card to buy geographically restricted stuff from their store and tell me to sod off.
What's worse is I used a 25% off discount they sent me in return for doing an online survey, and that didn't process either. They charged me the full whack.
