This annoys me - validation and formatting

[xoggoth]

Totally agree, really annoying.

Another bank I use gets you to put in your DOB and tells you it must be in dd-mm-yyyy format.

And yes, you have to put the dashes in or it rejects your entry! FFS!

Anyone shooped at scan.com? They ask your first name, last name, post code, mothers maiden name and password to login (existing customer!!!) to place order FFS!

I do hope that's an htpps page...

Even worse if you want it shipped outside of UK - then it's all manual - you send them the codes via email/phone and they create an invoice for you.
If you then want to pay via UK Credit Card you have to be physically in the UK otherwise it rejects you, fortunately I know how to use a proxy.

Having said all that I have nothing but praise for them for good prices for components, shipping and excellent customer service.

I guess they need to check you're not 105.

Sounds like a piece of Nick Fitz development. This is the exact nature of the piece of data I need, you as a user are an idiot, therefore even though it's easy to
write I am going to put up a smug user message and increment the counter NickKnowsBest by one.

Try not to talk such bollocks, it makes you look an even bigger tit than you are.

As I said.

Well done.
