SagePay will not accept my credit/debit card

[molleh]

I've been trying to purchase the Black Shark 2 upgrade (thank you ED for getting it to recognize a Steam copy of BS1) but the SagePay payment site is not accepting my Visa debit card. First off I'm 110% sure my balance is fine and 110% sure all my information that I've entered is correct, but it always comes back with "bank authorization declined" or words to that effect. Also I've been using this very same card for years now for online purchases and such so it's not an issue with the card itself.

 

Is there a way we can pay with Paypal or something? Otherwise I literally have no way of buying Black Shark 2.

 

Thanks!

Unfortunately PayPal is not an option. I don't know if it will become an option in future, but I personally doubt it.

 

Regarding Bank Authorization Declined, I've actually seen this happen as well - but on Steam. I never figured out what was happening, but in those cases, waiting a few hours or a day and trying again saw the payment go through fine. I would suspect that there's a technical reason somewhere in the bank systems - someone in the chain doing maintenance on their systems or just having their servers overloaded. (The latter is probably likely in my bank's case, since they constantly have problems with their electronic services.)
