Pete M Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 it has been brought to my attention that I haven't sent out a reminder about site donations in... quite some time apparently. so I guess this is that reminder that if you'd like to chip in and help cover our annual expenses, the paypal ID is ComancheClub@hotmail.com and the venmo is: @ComancheClub I can also accept through cashapp, snail mail, etc and I'll transfer the funds over. current bills are 29 bucks a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J33ps Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I've never paid a forum or any site donations. Not even wikipedia but this forum is so nice compared to most and has saved me boat loads of time and money. Happy to help keep it running, I sent via venmo. Hope it made it, or I paid another comanche club somewhere in the universe. Money well spent either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it made it, or I paid another comanche club somewhere in the universe. Money well spent either way I have never considered donating to any forum (and I am on several across many topics), with this being the lone exception. We are truly a rare breed of people who have good enough taste to appreciate our trucks like we do. That and the fact that my truck would long ago gone to crap without the knowledge and help I have obtained from this group. I have no problems helping with Comanche club. I feel I owe more than I can give sometimes. I have been around here soaking up knowledge since the yahoo days. Not sure I could make enough money to pay all that back. COMACHE CLUB RULES!!!!!

I set one up: @ComancheClub I still have to transfer funds around, but I figure that's inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 ok, so no one send anything to that CC venmo account until I can figure out why I can't access any donation sent there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatslug87 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Maybe it’s a good idea to to email donors with confirmation of receipt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 I figured it out! I have to use the app on my phone to transfer funds around. not entirely sure why they won't let me do that on my laptop but it doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzaman09 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 This thread made me curious to see what Venmo is, apparently it's a variant of PayPal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 yup, just yet another stupid money app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derf Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Yeah, if you buy and sell a lot on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace, or anywhere like that, it helps to have a venmo account. PayPal too. There's probably a few more as new ones come up from time to time. But those are the two biggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatslug87 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The problem with Venmo is there is no recourse if a deal goes bad, you’re not paying through a credit card so you can’t disputed any charges (not applicable here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J33ps Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Venmo started as an app to send money to friends generally. It was easier just to send money that way for shared expenses or roomate stuff among people you know. I wouldn't suggest it for spending big money on things or sending money to strangers (like I just did, hi pete! ). These days it seems people use it for rent payments to landlords and running small businesses. I will warn everyone, if you keep a large sum of cash in venmo they have the right to hold your money without recourse. There's been MANY horror stories, usually businesses, that need access to large sums of money in venmo but the company determines some security risk or legal problem and they lock these accounts for 6+ months with no legal recourse. I don't recall how this happened but the company's response has never been trustworthy and it's not a one off problem. Only keep small sums of money or no money at all in your account. They cannot be trusted. Lastly, if you bring in $600+ through venmo per year I do believe you're required to pay taxes on that cash. Government is cracking down on all the cash apps. Again, mainly for business accounts and the like. Not sure about personal. I rarely use money portals like this these days, it just adds to the complexity. Today "reputable" banks are pretty good at moving cash (especially the online ones) and everything else can be done via credit card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
