Reporting BobPay for unethical behaviour

Of course they are apologetic now, bet they never expected this sort of heat.

I maintain a few wordpress sites alongside my normal duties and have seen all sorts of liberties pulled by the open nature of the wordpress plugin repository but this is just a next level of arrogance. You claim a junior dev was working on high-level payment gateway code without oversight? Yeah, I don't think that comment landed the way you thought it would. Just reflects poorly overall on the company processes. You guys got caught out and I know for one I'll never use or recommend BobPay to anyone going forward.
 
The ol' junior developer excuse :laugh:

Never fails.
The poor junior devs always have to do the critical coding and code audits in case anything fails.
Then when the sht hits the fan they get the blame and fired whilst the lead/senior devs carry on as usual.
Life is so cruel. /s

Sounds like you talk from experience? Been there.
 
Having some fingers trapped in the lid of a closing cookie jar has that effect.

Surely you deleted the plugin and will not reinstall? You have payfast, and while peach presents its own issues they not malicious.
Ja, I don't think I'll be using them. Even if they fix the issue
