The main result deals with two cases that usually are considered separately: when no assumptions are made concerning the geometry of the underlying Banach space and when the Banach space is of Rademacher type p .

I. INTRODUCTION AND PRELIMINARIES The concept plete convergence was introduced in [1] as follows. A sequence of random variables ?U n ?n ≥ 1 ? is said to pletely to a constant c if ?? n = 1 P?? U n ? c ?>??< ? for all ?>
