I thought I'd test the Target waters again as it's been 12 days after my ban. "On the twelveth day of Christmas, my Target gave to me..."
Anyways, cleared my cookies (from my ban two years ago, was able to order again after a year without insta-cancelled after deleting all target.com cookies, but not before), logged in, tried a test order.
Oddly, whereas it would let me order and then insta-cancel, this time it rejects the credit card. Tried entering the red card info, and it said something to the effect of problem processing the credit card. Tried another card (that I most likely have associated with the banned account), and same message.
Tried paypal. It's been in "Preparing to Ship" status for 10+ minutes now. Usually the insta-cancel is just that -- within seconds.
Curious if any other banned accounts (I know the account was banned this time because support chat flatly told me I had violated their terms and conditions and was free to shop in store) are experiencing similar.
