Useless Human

TheCatWoman

I feel really terrible, I tried to buy a birthday present for a friend, the website refused to accept my card because it said I'd pressed the wrong thing and that it's not a visa debit card which it is, so that was a fail.

Then I went to switch our power company, filled in all the forms, it was returned with stars saying that none of the fields were correct.

I give up, I feel totally useless and defeated and worthless. How does everyone else manage when it seems I can't even fill in a form correctly and get my name, address and date of birth wrong, it's not, but the form won't have it.

    I don’t think everyone else does always manage. Those online forms for things like personal details and payments can be temperamental. I have found that if my browser is set to preventing tracking from cookies and websites, website forms don’t always allow me to fill in my details and make payment.

    If you know how, you could try clearing all cookies and website data from your browser. Also, you could try using a different browser to the one you normally use, eg, from Bing to Google. That should be enough to clear the form and to start again from scratch.
