+{\bf Internal note:} The exchange refusing a deposit immediately based on
+unaccaptable merchant accounts may not be fully implemented (this is a very
+recent feature, after all); especially the merchant then automatically
+refunding the purchase to the customer is certainly missing. However,
+the entire situation only arises when a merchant is incorrectly configured
+and in violation of the terms of service.
