I have a nice deal with my debit card company that allows me to get back 50% of money I put in my PSN wallet up to a limit. Back from February, I succesfully did the following,
I did this 4 times till now, But this month, I made the 40liras payment. It added the funds. I proceeded to add the 10liras, I received the error:
Credit Card information is invalid. (Something along the lines of that, I'm translating.... That's 2 minutes between the two transactions.)
So I remembered that I changed my address on the bank account, but still didn't know why Sony's credit card processor bailed out on me after actually allowing the first, but anyway, I entered my new address with the same credit card information.
It accepted the new info, even successfully took a symbolic amount for test, and put it back.
But now it still gives the same error, no matter how many times I tried to re-write my address. I deleted, re-entered details, test transaction is done, but it doesn't accept my money.
There are many people who can't succesfully pay Sony around multiple forums around the world. We don't have the PSN pre-paid card option in Turkey, btw.
Just a month ago, my brother had this same problem, succesfully added money, but a few months later when nothing changed, this problem popped up, nothing he could do could change it, so he had to use a different card.
Sony is randomly rejecting credit cards, it seems. So far, I had to change my credit card information twice already but I don't want to change this one because of this deal I have and I'm running out of different credit cards to be honest.
Anybody else have this problem, and what did you do to solve it? Is it solveable at all or am I doomed? Sony is very obsessed with address information matching your bank statement but it's got semi-colon and Turkish letters and I have no idea what kind of string matching they can to avoid false negative matches (apparently, they are not good at it)
- Put 40 liras
- Then immediately put 10 liras so I match the 50 liras of the promotion limit (no 50lira option)
- .....
- Profit (literally, after the month ends, I receive 25liras back)
