Very easy application, everything spelt out in advance of what is due and when. Starting with right amount and hopefully improve credit rating by keeping payments in schedule.

Tried making my first payment twice…

Tried making my first payment twice after activating my card. The transaction was declined twice on the basis that the vendor does not deal with your company. I tried transferring the funds to my bank account so I can pay with my debit card, but your company was charging 3% + 35% interest, + taking a few days to do it.
It was easier to get another card online and pay from it.
You should publish a list of those companies you dont deal with and your card cannot be used with them
