Fuck Apple. I've avoided spending money on Apple, and happily till the present, I haven't made a single purchase on my ID account. However, that changed today, as a creator I needed to make a purchase from can only be transacted through the app store system, and I have to clear it by today. Since I have my account set to the US store, and my actual physical self being from a different region, the gift code thingy was a choice option.
Now here is where the frustration began. Apparently, if it's your first purchase, entering your password is not enough, unlike sane normal stores. You are fucking forced to have to answer your security questions. And since I've set up my account so long ago, I totally forgot what the answers where. Now here's the kicker, in order to reset your security questions, you have to remember what those original answers where, or else the reset will just not work! Can you imagine that? What a joke!
Luckily it was a small sum, since I only bought a $5 gift card. If it was a $50 one, I'd have screamed. So then, I have to use a new account and respend on another gift card for the new set-up. Naturally, I'm pissed. Screw Apple.
