(Cross posted to Azores, Madeira, IslandRoutes) I've got a payment question, so I thought I would post it to all lists.
Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express. If you want to use PayPal, you need to call them at 713-868-1438 (then press 3) M-Th 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. and Fri 9 a.m.-12 noon CST. If you are NOT in the U.S. (or cannot call during those hours), you're going to have to email me and I'll have to place the order for you on Invoice. Then I'll notify FTDNA and they will set up a personal PayPal link for you to use. You'd think a DNA company that ships worldwide and deals with science would have a Pay Pal option on the payment screen.
