Check Your Paypal IPN Periodically...To Avoid Surprises

I had a rash of customers complaining about NOT getting digital
products that they orders. When I logged in to my Paypal account
I discovered they had turned off IPN.

When I called them they said that if they can't reach a page on
a site, they often turn off IPN. What that did in my case was
keep my scripts from verifying transactions, hence customers
weren't getting what they ordered.

 

Yeah is a normal procedure they make. Just 1 more of their amazingly bureaucratic rules :doh:

 

I am surprised they take such actions without any intimation and even if such process was automatic, they could also automatize generation of an e-mail notice!
Somebody needs to advise them on good business practices!

What script you use??
My brother is using paypal for past 1 year with out any trouble

 

Heh, I didn't even realize that you could turn IPN off. But yes, that is a pretty stupid move on their part.

 

No i think that they don't turn off IPN
But for safety purposes it may be done!
