Just tried adding a new credit card and it wants me to email a ****load of details to them, passport etc...is this normal?

[VR46]

What to Wirecard ? if so yes, new security etc.

you have to fax them

[Jebus]

No wirecard for me then!

[Number45]

You don't need to fax them, I scanned my stuff and emailed it across. Then I called them up to confirm and they sorted it while on the phone.

yeah he doesn't have access to a scanner though

After receiving your virtual mastercard, any idea how long it takes to become active as i am still getting invalid card information errors

[Jebus]

Straight away for me...

That is when it worked.

The trouble is, I've paid off and cancelled the original credit card I used to add funds, now all I ****ing want is to add a new one to buy Everyday Shooter ...all of a sudden they need proof, which is odd because they didn't last time.

OK - I have my Wirecard account enabled after emailing them a scan of my utility bill/passport/card and have added 20 Euro to it.
I have gone back into my US PS3 account (fictional US address in Maryland copied from a business address) and attempted to set the card up, but while I have no problem with the card details page I can never get it past the card address page as it states the details are invalid!
The wirecard is registered to my address here in the UK, having read page one it gives the impression you just use the registered UK card address details on the US card address page, but if this is the case how are people getting past the 'state' dropdown, and the 'postal code' dropdown as you can only input numbers!
Please help 'cause I really want Super Puzzle Fighter!

Edit: Should add I am on the latest PS3 firmware, incase that makes a difference!

[wicky]

Cawley - i am getting the same problem

[cawley1]

wicky - we cannot be the only ones!

Hopefully someone can help out, but regardless it looks like the info on page one no longer works (either a firmware update, or Wirecard has done something to MC accounts in relation to the address).

Fingers crossed someone can enlighten us.

Your PSN account and your WireCard account are not related in any way.

You register for a WireCard using your real address and you register the WireCard on your PSN account with a working US address.

When the PSN account checks your WireCard account it'll show up that your WireCard account is online only and won't show your real address.

WireCard have changed some things over the past couple of months so I'm not sure if the address checking still works in the same way or not.

JPN PSN cards ftw! No, I won't sell any.

Can you not use those pre-pay Visa cards?

[Jebus]

Is there any way I can paypal someone to get ES for me...mind you, that's account sharing isn't it, so nevermind.

Pissed off, sort out the EU store sony!!!

What a load of old arse.
