Yesterday and today has seen the return of the Sage Pay gremlins with the third man fraud scoring system failing to bring back results.

A year ago I posted a blog on how impressed with Sage Pay I was. I really was totally thrilled, with the application, with the gateway and most importantly of all, with the customer service.
