Credit Card Processing and Maybe Invoicing - EVO 4G Themes and Apps

I run a small tech shop, and I'd love to be able to invoice and bill and process credit cards directly from my Evo, however, I'm currently using http://www.workingpoint.com/ for my invoices and I love it, but that's not to say if there was a better solution that I wouldn't switch.
So what all have you used, recommend and dislike.

I run credit cards through authorize.net using the stock browser. Works great!

Check out Square ... squareup.com - they give you a free credit card swiper when you sign up.

Get square is far and away the best once mass shipments of dongles begins

Any idea on how long it will take Square to mail me a dongle? Do you have one? I'd love to just swipe and process.

Good luck with square, signed up when they first came out (same day) no dongle yet, got an email about a month ago saying that they were sending them out to approved users, turns out they are checking credit scores, I have a score in the 700's, yet I have not gotten one, so I don't think they are going to stay around long.

Saw this on the TV this morning , thought it was an amazing idea especially if you do any commerce where you would love the option to take a credit card, personally might be nice if you sell stuff on craigslist, flea markets etc
Designed by 1 of the founders of twitter!
Free for the card reader and to sign up , they do get you for 2.75 -3.5% plus 15cents per transaction.
But im sure it would add options for people to pay and create more sales?

If you didn't sign for either and they were just left on your door, then you have a question to ask yourself
Are you a person concerned with "Ethics"? If so test both, see which one has less bugs and screen bleed, then send back your original and the lesser of the two replacements
If not, call T-Mobile and check your order history WITHOUT mentioning you got two G2X replacements, and ask for tracking numbers associated to any orders including warranty replacements.
If only one G2X order exists in the system, match the tracking number to its phone and use only THAT phone never turning on the other one
Get a replacement battery cover from LG, a charger and battery online, sell as new no box on Craigslist with a prepaid number, delete the ad and email, throw the prepaid sim away, profit.
Mail the extra one to me. :O

I didn't sign for them. My dad did. They both have same numbers on them, tracking numbers etc. Only the serial is different on both phones.

One thing I forgot to mention. They were supposed to just be sending me a battery. They sent two replacement phones instead.
So you signed?
Call asking if it was delivered ("I'm away on business, just checking if my phone was delivered yada yada"), if when they check they don't mention two were delivered you're golden, follow the sheisty instructions above!

Genius. Report missing battery, say you have 1phone delivered accidentally, demand a new battery...

Profit for me I guess!
It's called stealing, regardless of who made the mistake. Call and return the phone.. It's the right thing to do.
Ignore above poster ... note the Jesus freak avatar that tells you right there ignore any advice from him. I highly suggest you make your self a nice profit... its not stealing if they gave it to you.
Muwahahaha..... sinning rules! !!!

sell it man, get some money for it bruh, tmobile problem not yours. earn some bucks

Verizon sign up deposit ...

i know i could call Verizon but i hate using my phone to talk to someone, so....
The deposit you pay when you first sign up, do you get that back after the 1st year is up or the 2nd?...
and do they just give you the money back or applying "credit" to your account?... that and can you just use it towards another phone?
Did you have to pay a deposit to open a line or are you talking about something else?

They made me pay a $400 deposit due to my horrible horrible bad credit thanks to shady activity in my past...........
..............................
⌐_⌐
I believe you are looking at about a 6-8 month turnaround. They review your account after so much time and if its in good standing, you get it back.

cool. it's been 5 months so far. wonder if i should put it to a new phone or stick with this thing a tad longer. granted, this is the only "current" phone that i like.
I'd wait. Big things on the horizon.
FYI, a quick story....
When I signed up with Verizon in 2006 (freshly 18, and had zero credit) i was required to place a $100 deposit which I would recieve back after a year of good payments. After about 18 months, i realized that i never got my deposit back. It took a few phone calls, to both Verizon and my Bank for them to give my $100 back.... so while they did give me the money back.... my advice would be to hold onto that receipt!!!
deposits are held for one year.
After a year, they will review for things like bounced checks and such. As long as you have clean payment history, they apply the deposit to the account, then mail a check for any remain credit balance.
If you don't pass the review, they hold it for a few more months and review again. They'll continue to hold until you have something like 3 months of clean payments.

Kudos to you for staying in good standing.
I love people with such bad credit that can't pay their bills, yet they can afford a smartphone with a data plan. Oops, did I just say that?
I got mine about a year after. But i called them on the dot LOL . 2 weeks later got my Mula.

Hey some people have awesome priorities! But also keep in mind that sometimes "bad" credit isnt their doing or happened because of circumsatances beyond their control. Divorces, theft identity,things like that. Did you know that credit reporting companies in themselves arent the most honest people to deal with (unless you are an A+ list celeb)
The area I personally start having problems is, seeing as how I believe everyone should have a second chance, as long as they learn from their mistakes (as I had to), and do not repeat them.Or the ones that constantly feed off the "government trough" but thats another story.
Im glad you are improving things ..Stick with it. There is a light at the end of the tunnel
When i went back to Verizon after being away for several years... They wanted a $400... I waited three months and tried again got in with no deposit... And no change in credit score according to the service I was using at the time... Go figure...

When I first signed up for Verizon I was about 20 tears old and had 0 credit. I signed up online and didn't have to out a deposit down.
Odd how that happens.

I had a deposit and after 12 months of not being shut off, they credited my bill for the deposit. Used it to get my Tbolt.

that's not bad, had to pay 250 per line on sprint years ago. The weird thing is, about every six months, they would credit it back, even though it had already been credited. Happened 4-5 times over the years.

Recommend me a working fax app...

So, anyone know one that works, and have first hand experience with it being reliable?
I don't mind having to pay a recurring fee for a service if necessary, the need arises for a work issue - anyone know of one that works?
Ive used Visual Voicemail Plus, its free for 30 days. See if you like it works for me
Thanks guys, i'll give these both a whirl.
A lot of the fax apps have problems with not actually sending, or the fax machine never receives it.
This will be for my time-sheets at work, so my pay is directly affected by the fax not making it in on time, and 24 hours can mean my pay gets tied up for several paychecks.
Any issues with non-received faxes that you know of?
Okay, update:
Got a trial account with www.myfax.com
After checking out my options and spending some time reading up on it this morning, seemed like the best move. I appreciate the two posters above giving me something to chew on that led to this.
Tried them out, sent faxes from my email to a couple local copy shops. All printed in a timely fashion, so seems like it's pretty decent. I'll keep using my free trial to put it to the test, but if it keeps working this well i'll be switching to a paid subscription probably before the trial is over.
The minimum plan they offer on a yearly basis will save me a little more then half the money I spend on sending faxes a year, so that's pretty awesome.
Now the hunt is on for a good scanner app to get the document into the phone and fax ready.
I've been tinkering with Scan-to-PDF that I bought a while ago in the google market, but it's just not up to snuff for this task. I'm looking for something that'll do full page scans and not make it look like a picture from a phone when it prints out on the fax machine I send it to.
To that end, Droid Scan Pro PDF looks like the most promising candidate for an app to scan into PDF format, i'll pick it up later in the week or early next ... whenever I dump another gift card into the app market.
Meantime, if anyone knows anything about that app, good bad or indifferent, i'd love to hear it.
Camscanner is an amazing pdf creator. Free in the market.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Camscanner is pretty cool, but haven't had the chance to play with it much - had a lot on my plate recently.
I also got the app I mentioned in my last post, but haven't had the chance to use it yet.
Sometime in the next week i'll post a review of how they work out. My next scheduled shift is on the 28th, so sometime not long after that i'll have to fax a time card in.

Scam site. easyelectronicstore

Update. Site is a scam and asks for wire transfer.
Just ordered the tf700 from there for my daughter. Price is insane low for the 64gb, just not sure how trust worthy they are.
Used my wifes cc and there worry part is this.... it did not ask for phone number. All the other info was regular info, address, email and bla bla bla
Not 5 minutes later she gets pop up on her phone for a chat invite from easy electronic store. i saw it on the screen as she read it and said WTF, not seconds later she lost the pop up. I dont know what it was or where it came from. I cant find anything on her phone to see where it came from
I guess well see if the tf700 comes. If it does ill be ordering another for my other daughter so im crossing my fingers
I was looking at the site easyelectronicstore.com
I dunno there my friend...if it were me I'd cancel that credit card charge immediately.

Yeah I only just realised that my bad - i just joined this xda thing and noticed you've been a member since 2009 - mistook it for you purchasing and posting this in 2009.
Thanks though that will be pretty helpful.
Considering that the two color options are "black" and "white" (two non existant colors on the tf700), I'd say it's probably not real..

Yeah I know what you're saying I've been trying to look for the same thing, they're apparently selling iPhone 5's for £300 - BARGAIN OF THE YEAR! If it's legit that is... Cheers mate hopefully this'll help!! Good luck!!! I look forward to the *hopefully* all clear (Y)
EDIT: Should point out - a good observation on the Black/White colour availability on ALL products across the website but I done some searching they've been up as a website for about 28 days - no reviews - so looks like we're the guinea pigs of this site so we'll find out soon enough.. I checked it through this: scamadviser.com/ - go to 'check webiste' and type in www[dot]easyelectronicstore[dot]com
SECOND EDIT: I know I keep editing but I'm realising more bits and pieces that may help put two and two together. From a programmers point of view; adapting on the above colour availability 'black and white' across the site.. the actual 'Availability' read's 'In stock' as a drop down box. This should not be the case as the customer cannot choose whether something is in stock or not but we should only be able to view this information. So either poorly designed web pages or scam. - I've been talking to a 'representative' and they're saying all the right things but I guess overall we'll just have to wait and see..
BTW, i found this thru the google shopper app on my phone. Otherwise i can not find any other info on this retailer

The site says locations in Virginia and the UK...
Still say it looks shady...
I just looked the site up a few minutes ago & I was concerned about the contact number, it's a cell/mobile phone number not a direct land-line,which would raise my suspicions, I sincerely do hope ALL goes well & your product reaches you though I am concerned....
P.s.why don't you give them a call on the phone number the site gives you?(I didn't include it in my post incase I done something wrong)
Do not order from this website
Easyelectronicstore.com is REMARKABLY a lot like superstoregadgets.com both websites have both US and UK addresses (although superstoregadgets.com didn't have a US address a month ago) I was really excited about the price at first too since it was so cheap but when I went through their checkout process just to see how much they would charge for shipping I received an email saying this:
"We thank you for your order# (New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 64GB 10.1" Android Tablet), and we want to inform you that your order has been received and confirmed, packed and will soon be ready for shipment, but we are unable to process your credit card because of the issues we are presently facing with our credit card processor, due to large volume of order we are receiving at this promo period, and no COD anymore, to complete this order, we need to receive your payment before we can ship out your order, all payments are to be made via Online Money Transfer (Western Union or Money Gram)."
Funny thing was...I never even entered any payment information yet. So I did some searching and the UK address for superstoregadgets had been used by several other online stores in the past and people had ordered stuff from them and never received their products.
Easyelectronicstore.com doesn't even have any certifications. Just a picture of a "safe and secure" badge on the page that doesn't even link to any agency that would support any confirmation that the site is legit. Just like with superstoregadgets.com when you search for the address on google you get no other indication that the website has an online presence or notoriety.
I SERIOUSLY BELIEVE THAT EASYELECTRONICSTORE.COM IS A SCAM. IF YOU HAVE ORDERED FROM THEM I WOULD SUGGEST IMMEDIATELY TRYING TO GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND I WOULD SUGGEST INVESTIGATING INTO POSSIBLY PUTTING A FRAUD ALERT ON THAT CARD.
It's better to be safe than sorry.
Yeah I think it is a scam. Luckily used cc instead of debit so I should be good to go. Gonna wait till tuesday and if I dont have anything from them im gonna try and call and then ill call my cc co.
My wife got the chat invite again today when she was out and it disapeared before she could get a screen shot for me.
Yup just got the email asking for wire transfer. She is calling then cc co in a bit
Well bud thanks for flagging this dodgy company for the rest of us ,suppose it was to good to be true....
