Are there testing services you’ve used before or would recommend to perform the testing? There does not seem to be a major brand or service provider offering this. Thank you!

CoverWhale.com | Multiple roles | New York City | https://www.coverwhale.com/careers/

We’re using technology to make the world safer - starting with truck insurance.

Most injuries and fatalities on roadways are completely preventable and many deaths on our roads involve a large commercial vehicle like a tractor-trailer.

We’re improving safety while saving safety-conscious drivers money.

We’re redefining “insurtech” and have the insurance loss ratios and portfolio of thousands of active drivers to prove it.

Key roles (NYC): * Product * Engineering (Python/Go/PHP) * DevOps

We’re growing fast and our team sees the benefit of getting people together. These are mostly on-site roles in NYC (4+ days/week). We are competitive++ on compensation as well as equity.

If you’re ready for a change, passionate, talented and have a ‘history of delivery’ we’d love to talk!

If you think joining us is right for you and us and want to discuss with me further please reach out : Dan at Cover Whale dot com

Happy New Year!

Re:We got banned from PayPal after 12 years of business on Thursday May 09, 2019 @07:59AM (#19867390)
Only after having a law firm, who we knew through an advisor contact, send PayPal’s legal department a letter did they release our PayPal balance funds back to us.

We were banned without explanation after being a customer for 8+ years and had our PayPal balance (not yet transferred to a bank) frozen.

We left a high balance with PayPal because at the time the interest rate they provided was high.

No explanation was given at any point and the whole process took about 3 months to get our own funds back that we needed to operate the business.

I've seen them on platforms occasionally throughout the NYC subway system - the first time maybe a year or two ago although I can't be sure when exactly.
