Amazon chaos

When I went to order my DVD from Amazon.ca, it couldn't log me in. So I tried a couple of my passwords in case I was using the same one. Still nothing. So I clicked the "Forgotten your password" thing. I put in my e-mail address and it still couldn't find me. Weird. I thought maybe the account had been closed, like because I hadn't used it in a while or something, so I went to open it again, basically clicked on open a new account and put in all the same details, same e-mail address, same password, everything. Then I ordered my DVD. Everything went fine, exactly as normal.

Then I went back a few hours later because I hadn't got my confirmation e-mail, and logged in again. It logged me into my old account, with all my order history intact, and the Slings and Arrows DVD not included in it. So I have no idea now what is going on. I rang my bank, and the order was accepted and they are due to pay out the money, so I e-mailed Amazon and asked them what is going on, but I haven't got a response yet. They say it takes up to 24 hours.

Being as paranoid as I am, I automatically thought someone must have hacked the site and stolen my details, so I asked the bank but no onther transactions have taken place since. Just in case that's because someone decided to take a few days to browse and choose something nice and expensive to buy, I transferred most of the money out of that account and into one i have with another bank. I'm sure it's just a glitch on the site, but it's very annoying, because i want my DVD, and now I don't know what's going on with it. So in order to cheer myself up from this, I think I'll watch my episodes that I have downloaded.

Sorted now. No, not yet. I'm not sure you'd like it, but you can give it a try if you want.

Really? I'm sure my ad got some letters. Weird.

That wouldn't have effected it anyway, the problem was based online and in Canada. Sorted now though, so it's all good.

It could be an error with the website. Still, best to err on the side of caution with such matters.

It was the website, but I'm glad I messed about moving my money anyway, or I'd have been stressing all night!
