Last night i order the books at dangdang website and even key in my credit card detail however it state that my transaction was unsuccessful.


But this morning i received a email indicating that my order was submitted and waiting for my payment.

Now i get confused, what should i do now?

Your payment is not successful. You should receive another email saying that payment has been received.

You need to cancel that transaction, and submit a new order. Have you setup your personal message and password at the Citibank website ? After you enter your credit number and submit, you should see your personal message and then you have to enter your password.

Sometimes the Citibank server may be having problems. I have complained to Citibank that they are not providing good customer support on the Secure Online Shopping feature. The staff said that she will report this issue to the relevant department.

If you have Amex card, can try that too. I think it may be easier.

Hi Tamarind,


Thanks for your help. Never set up my message and passwords at citibank website. Haha. I will do it and cancel that order. Hai, have been trying for a few nights liao.

After we go through the 1st order is it easier when we order 2nd round?

hi Lizuan,


Anyway i have tried to place order today. Sadly most of the 四五快读 books are not available at the moment.

I decided to join spree to get the books.

Tamarind probably single-handedly caused 四五快读 to be OOS so frequently. haha!

But Charmaine, even if you join the spree, the spree organiser is also ordering from dangdang. So it still means he/she probably cannot order the books too. The stock supply actually comes back quite soon.

Dear Dimsun,


Not the case.

Dandang deal differently for bulk puchase. If the books are not available in the website. It will replenish for you in the case of BP.

You may still encounter problems. Sometimes when I entered the password, an error message was shown. I had to reset the password and try again. This is a problem with the Citibank server, hopefully they will do something about it after I feedback. The same thing happened when I tried to use the Citibank credit card to book cinema tickets from Golden Village website ! So it has nothing to do with dangdang.

I am going to apply for the Amex card I have a feeling it will be easier.

When I tried to order in late Nov last year, it was also OOS. So it cannot be due to me lah Yes the stocks came back quite soon.

Do you guys know when the next spree will be? I tried to contact the blog in Singapore listed a few pages back some days ago, but there was no response.

The 小丁当 comics worked so well, tks so much Tamarind!! My 三国演义video was a flop - the Chinese was too hard even for me (I think my level is P6 only :P).

[tamarind]

Blobbi,

You are welcome !

There is a 小丁当 movie, about 大雄和恐龙 which is very good. You can look for it in local stores.

Also, look for movies by Hayao Miyazaki, 宮崎駿.

Which blog are you referring to ?

courier:

u can check out http://www.mylearningadventure.com for chinese picture books.

Tamarind, it's this one. Oops, not blog. Once I open the Dangdang website, I start to feel vertigo - so woozy. I can't understand the Chinese words lah :lol: .

Yes I will check out the movies, hehe. Hayao Miyazaki movies- yahor, can switch to Chinese.

Tks much again!
