@cubby - Ever since I got ID hacked back in May and had to change absolutely everything on my online play toys including beefing up my security measures to a level I don't even understand
, with all the trojans, infections, rogue files and other hacker/back door info lifting crap I found, I haven't made a single financial transaction on my play systems using my own bank/credit cards/acct. information since. And, since I know my social's out there floating around again (got hacked once before yrs. ago), I also had to change my personal acct. info and add annoying security measures to most everything to verify all my purchases on top of requesting monthly activity details on accts. that don't send them. Gah! But, that's the price of life online, I guess.
ANYway, the point of all this (I really do have a point) is that I've had friends from both here and other states make random PayPal purchases and collections, online donations and other occasional online debit/credit card transactions for me with their cards (I don't use my work comp for online play time so it stays pretty secure), and I just transfer the funds into their accts. offline. It's a major pita, but it keeps my hacker-hater attitude and WebRoach
paranoia in perspective, lol.
If you're still not able to get it to go through for some reason, you might want to consider asking a trusted friend or family member if you could use one of their cards/accts. to re-up and just give them the cash for it or transfer it to them. (?) When my bold membership came up in July, for example, I had a friend do it for me and just shot Morbid an inbox that it was actually from me so I'd be credited for it. I was rebolded in less than five minutes. I also let him know I wasn't a guy.
Just a suggestion and HTH. <3
