dadunn1700 Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 My bank will not allow me to use my debit card for overseas purchases. I tried to buy the NTTR map for DCS 2.0 and it actually froze my card until I verified it wasn't stolen. When I talked to my bank they said I can't purchase from this website bc the payment goes outside of the USA. How do US based customers buy from DCS? I'd wager I'm not the only 1 in this position. I've been playing DCS 1.5 and buying modules through Steam.....but I'd like to start taking advantage of the deals DCS puts on their store that you can't get through Steam. Not to mention Steam isn't offering DCS 2.0 modules right now. Only way you can get them is through the DCS online store.
Automan Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Usually I pay with Paypal. Open an account on paypal, link & verify your debit card and buy.

Brisse Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 I'm not from the US, but surely PayPal must be a convenient workaround for your problem. Debit card -> PayPal (based in US) -> ED Store

dadunn1700 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Posted February 17, 2016 Might wait awhile and retry again through a actual paypal account. Already tried paying through PayPal as a guest and I don't want to have to explain to my bank why I tried to make the same transaction again (if it freezes my card again). Either that or just delete DCS 2.0 and wait until it's released on Steam along with the NTTR Theatre.
cichlidfan Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Don't use your debit card online. It generally does not have the same protections against loss and fraudulent charges that credit cards do.

Socket7 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Paypal. Then only they have my payment info, rather than spreading that info out in god knows how many website databases all over the net just waiting to be stolen. Practice makes perfect.

Rogue Trooper Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Paypal is also my preference. If not then a Credit card is much better than a debit card. HP G2 Reverb (Needs upgrading), Windows 10 VR settings: IPD is 64.5mm, High image quality, G2 reset to 60Hz refresh rate. set to OpenXR, but Open XR tool kit disabled. DCS: Pixel Density 1.0, Forced IPD at 55 (perceived world size), DLSS setting is quality at 1.0. VR Driver system: I9-9900KS 5Ghz CPU. XI Hero motherboard and RTX 3090 graphics card, 64 gigs Ram, No OC... Everything needs upgrading in this system!. Vaicom user and what a superb freebie it is! Virpil Mongoose T50M3 base & Mongoose CM2 Grip (not set for dead stick), Virpil TCS collective with counterbalance kit (woof woof). Virpil Apache Grip (OMG). MFG pedals with damper upgrade. Total controls Apache MPDs set to virtual Reality height. Simshaker Jet Pro vibration seat.. Uses data from DCS not sound... goodbye VRS.
joey45 Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Paypal as much as possible, Even though I'm not in the US... The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
