Best we can do is speculate. Resolving requires @tubes21 (the only with the authority) to contact both TMR and his bank to clear up the payment processing problem. Otherwise maybe work out another method of receiving payment.
Agreed. Posting this on a public forum doesn't seem like the right move, yet, to resolve the situation or get more information. TMR's reputation is good and doesn't deserve even unintentional tarnishing, IMHO.
