Layanan PayPal Sangat Memuaskan

Layanan PayPal Sangat Memuaskan


Saya sangat puas dengan layanan PayPal. PayPal secara real melayani komplain membernya, artinya bukan hanya secara prosedur dan formalitas belaka.

Sebuah Testimoni positif saya buat PayPal. Saya menulis ini secara jujur dan berdasarkan fakta. Tujuannya tidak lain hanyalah untuk berbagi pengalaman kepada rekan-rekan onliners. Siapa tahu suatu saat anda mengalami hal yang sama dengan saya dan atau buat anda yang sedang melakukan investigasi tentang kredibilitas PayPal.

Cerita ini bermula lebih kurang 3 bulan yang lalu. Saat itu saya sangat tergiur dengan program klik email dan iklan dibayar yang menawarkan $2 setiap kliknya dan berpotensi menghasilkan ratusan juta rupiah dalam tempo 6 bulan. Singkatnya sebelum saya menemukan Program klik dibayar atau PTC terpercaya yaitu NeoBux.

Saya sangat bernafsu mengikuti program tersebut tanpa melakukan investigasi terlebih dahulu mengenai kredibilitas situs tersebut. Tanpa berpikir panjang lagi saya langsung melakukan upgrade keanggotaan yang nilainya mencapai $100 lebih atau tepatnya $110. Selanjutnya, lagi-lagi tanpa berpikir panjang, melalui blog ini saya langsung memposting artikel mengenai program PTC tersebut. Akibat posting tersebut cukup banyak pengunjung blog ini yang tertarik dan mendaftar menjadi member.

Sampai suatu saat salah satu komentar di posting saya tersebut mengingatkan saya mengenai SCAM. Barulah saya sadar dan saat itu juga melakukan investigasi. Dari hasil investigasi tersebut saya memutuskan bahwa memang situs tersebut adalah SCAM.

Aduh, sial! uang untuk upgrade sudah saya transfer. Gimana nih?. Tapi saya tidak habis akal, saya coba menghubungi PayPal melalui email untuk menarik kembali uang yang sudah ditransfer. Besoknya email saya dibalas PayPal dan menyarankan untuk komplain melalui Resolution Center-nya. Hati saya sedikit lega, minimal sudah ada solusi. Setelah mengikuti prosedur yang disarankan, akhirnya dalam tempo lebih kurang 1 bulan, uang $110 yang sudah saya transfer berhasil ditarik kembali ke rekening saya.

Berikut screenshot email dari Paypal bahwa uang saya sudah dikembalikan ke rekening saya:

Report Text - Puppets

Puppets

Puppets have been used for centuries in Indonesia to tell the stories of the ancient epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabarata, as well as ancient myths. Modern stories also utilize this ancient art form for contemporary audiences. Puppets fall into two major classifications, wayang kulitthe leather or shadow puppet of Central Java, and wa y ang golek-wooden puppets of West Java. There are several varieties of wooden puppets. Some expatriats enjoy collecting the same character by various artisans, or all the characters in a scene or story, or just characters that strike their fancy. Good guys, bad guys, gods, demons, nobles, giants, clowns, princes and princesses and monkeys, all can be found in traditional puppet forms. Less commonly seen are the Wayang Klitik, a flat wooden puppet.

DRUG ABUSE

Salam
MUQODDIMAH

Praise be to Allah, The Lord of the universe who has given us the blessing, so we can live in this world well.

Peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad that has shown us from the dark way to the right way that is Islam religion.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Honorable juries,
And dear audience.

 If we look at our surrounding now, we would find there are many deviation of morality in almost all aspect of life. And as the Moslem youth, do we have to let our friends, our brothers, our sisters and the most young generation influenced and depend on DRUG ABUSE? Do we have to let them increase the mortality by killing each other? And must we let the death increases because of AIDS? The answer must be NO and NEVER.

Young Moslem generation,

 As the Moslem youth, we have great responsibility to the future of religion and nation. Surely, it is hard for us as youth to live in this millenium era. What must we do to face the reality? Of course, besides we have to make ourselves near to ALLAH we have to supply ourselves with good deeds, ability and skills that are relevant to Islam laws.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

 But the reality speaks the contrary. There are still many people think that looking for the forbidden jobs is very difficult even the allowed ones. They are influenced by the wrong mottoes, many of them like to take the bad way to get the money, for example: robbing, stealing, hijacking, etc. They don't know who is friend and who is the enemy. In their mind the most important is how to get a lot of money.

Young Moslem generation,

If the condition of people like this, how is the fate of our religion and nation in the future? Ya ALLAH, I think the world will be damaged by their own action. They will destroy their religion life. Men will be considered as dirty animal, and our country will be called the bad country.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

 Last but not least, let's pray together to ALLAH. May we are as Moslem given power by Allah to carry out the good deeds and to fight the evils in this world, especially in our country.

That is my speech, forgive me if I make mistake. Finally I say

Salam
