We dont take the payment until 30 days, part of our T's and C's on B.C. We do use Stripe, but dont invoice any client, just take the payment and send our receipt around 30 days prior. Using FreetoBook they take the CC details, which allows us to view once, then the CVC isnt valid to view any more. I...

I asked about why reviews were also skewed date wise, but got a confusing, misleading answer.

Re: Anyone on Instagram? Tips? Mutual support and following?

I just started an Instagram account, no idea if it will work, but it makes more sense to me than twitter as a visual medium.

X-Box one S, should we leave one in our home?

Thinking of just providing that little bit extra for the rental, so are there any horror stories we need to be aware of?

Its for a rental in Orlando, Encantada resort to be exact.

Thanks

Thank you all for your help. I have started using it. How do you find it? I am using Stripe over here, SSL embeded, on the payments page, but i find the code quite difficult to understand and customise. We have a Stripe account I can plug details into straight away, but can't create invoices. Does ...

I listened to a podcast, may have been TED, not sure. But page links (Larry Page) were suggested to be of higher rank on quality, but not necessarily reciprocal.
