Oddbean new post about login | logout @primal Got my Apple Cash Card deactivated for life because I bought sats ⚡️ No fucking way …. Any one else ?
So you bought sats with a credit card? Is that a thing? Please share what info you have to document this.
So literally On @primal When you buy ⚡️⚡️⚡️ It’ll take you to Apple Pay I used the Apple Cash Card & I woke up to send my mom $5 dollars for her coffee and my account was restricted. I called Apple and was told a certain purchase with an application from the App Store is what caused the deactivation. Only app I ever used on Apple Cash is Primal 🤦♂️
Wow. That’s a classic Reverse Trojan Horse move. ‘Allow’ something, then ban anyone who actually uses it.
I used my bank credit linked to my Apple account. The payment shows up as APPLE.COM/BILL. Now wondering, after Apple collecting their 30%, if they can report me and shut me down.
Yeah that’s what I’m assuming is happening

C'est bien un windows XP sur la note tanel ? Ça marche encore ?: j'ai un pc neuf dans mon grenier ' merci pour la réponse
the operating system still works, but as it is outdated, then there are lots of security flaws in it
Je pourrais peut-être l'user pour du stockage puisqu'avec les ssid il y a peu de capacités de stockage c'est très rapide pour l'exécution comme un téléphone mobile .. Dernièrement un de mes ordinateurs m'a planté au cours des mises à jour Edge ...j'ai dû racheté un neuf . Merci je verrais comment faire .b
I mean, I could see them being worried about fraud. Someone could steal CC numbers and buy sats and immediately send them to another wallet out of reach of recovery. I listened to the recent Citadel Dispatch with the primal dev and they didn't really get approval or work with Apple to make sure it was acceptable. They just guessed that if they gave Apple their cut they wouldn't give a shit.
Did Apple not approve it on the AppStore though? Regardless if they “got direct approval” Apple approved the app so they must know?
They also approved Damus with zaps for awhile before backtracking.
If anything this gives me a vote of no confidence to assume that Apple is actually taking measures to protect its users If they use an “approve now disapprove later after actually taking a look” model
Good point
Cash app will ban people for life for using their bitcoin "wrong". They don't tell you what it is either, you have to guess. Apple uses the same playbook. It might not be Apple, but they are beholden to the same authoritarian forces so it really doesn't make a difference.
Right. Some really smart dude pointed this out in 2009. ”The problem with this solution is that the fate of the entire money system depends on the company running the mint, with every transaction having to go through them, just like a bank."
It’s not Apple, it’s their banking partners. Apple could very easily end up getting into Bitcoin because they actually hate this shit for their customers
Oh noooo. Try earning 🤔
OH HELL NO 😡 this wont end well https://image.nostr.build/6d01e8be23aa9daece3fe81c7a48df21fb80e3692ea8f199c72c02efba22dcd8.jpg
This is why you don't Apple.
I already questioned if @Primal has money transmittal license in all states. If they don’t it is illegal for them to sell you #bitcoin. @Primal can you clarify this?
It’s a victimless crime. I love primal for disregarding unjust laws.
You bought the sats through Apple Pay right ? Apple Pay with any card but Apple’s card is okay. This is crazy !
Basically I can use the Apple Pay with my own debit cards or credit cards But officially blocked from the Apple Cash since I purchased ⚡️⚡️⚡️ through #Primal using Apple Cash 🤦♂️
It’s kinda funny/ironic though bc Apple Cash is pretty much their p2p electronic cash system and you got rekt for using it to buy the real deal
Yup; unfortunately got damn $5 dollars. Should of never tried #primal lol 😆 #following the hype
You mean shouldn't have used apple, a company that thinks they can tell you how to spend the money you worked for. They know what's best for their cattle
Hey @nobody, are you sure the reason was your in-app purchase of sats via Primal? Can you please share the exact message you received from Apple? Feel free to DM me if you don't want to share publicly. I doubt that buying sats via Primal was the issue, as they would have reached out to us as well.
They should give at least a notice to him via mail but usually banks in the USA don’t explain the reason why they closed account! So, they will say we closed your account and left over of your balance will be mailed to separately on check
Right
So, how do you know that it’s because of primal lol
I’ve stated everything already
I don’t believe you and the reason because I have had accounts that been closed by banks such as chase and citi and they NEVER explained the reason ! So, I only could assume that it’s because I been buying bitcoin on coinbase back in 2017 and they saw it but didn’t tell !
Hey Miljan; I’d love to honestly show proof on paper but i was told this when i called The Apple Card Number within the App, and they sent me a email that’s all. https://image.nostr.build/7ed51f634169b46fd8edfd020d55a1598e8e5ff53e2a639cc7ec1e183d156e8f.jpg
You wouldn’t happen to live in Indiana?
Nope the might 🗽 unfortunately Where they are Against majority of Bitcoin/crypto
oh, that’s a hard no then, the sats are bought through Strike, which doesn’t have a license there, you set off everyone’s alarms lifetime ban seems unreasonable though
Did they say that specifically?
Rekt.
