I need to use the website once in a while and therefore can't risk being declared a persona non grata by the website owner, so it's a bit risky to file for a chargeback. Is there a way to anonymously report the website to VISA or to the authorities to have this shortcoming rectified?
Any option to pay with JCB (or Discover card)? I'm confused considering the third country currency. That's automatic grounds for a chargeback. However, since to seem to be familiar with those who operate the website, would it be possible to inquire with the website operator about how the website processes payments?
