Buying from the PlayStation HK Store

[NoelEdwards]

Which credit cards work with the Hong Kong Store?

Thanks in advance

I used a visa delta card for my Tekken 5 buying moment earlier on

yes - just to confirm that I also use a VISA debit card and it worked fine. One thing to note is that it wouldnt let me add more than $80 at a time. So I added funds to my wallet in $80 chunks.

Also, on the US store you can quite happily use a Mastercard. I'm not sure if there are transaction limits but you can certainly add funds in $25 chunks.

Hope that helps.

Brill, got a VISA Debit Card, so will do this tomorrow when I'm home.

Nice one I've got visa debit & visa credit card's, time to go shopping.

I'm almost crying here...
Both my Dutch Visa and Mastercard don't work in the HK store :-(

Dont forget to change your address details back to your home address for your Hong Kong account in the first three address lines in the account manager on the xmb.

Then add the funds into your virtual wallet via the account manager and you should be able to add either 40 or 80 dollar chunks at a time.

Thank you for your extra information, but unfortunately, it still doesn't work with my CC's. I did try the steps you wrote (in the account manager). But it still gives me this error "the credit card information is not valid"

How much is HK$125.00 in real money? That's how much it says Tekken is.

Edit £8.20. nm cheers anyway.

Does Visa Electron work??

A bit OT, but what happens if your download bombs out half-way through? I have had the PS Store go down twice while downloading demos, so I am a bit concerned about buying stuff and then losing it!

Cheers

Sorry to bring this up again but just want to be sure I'm out of luck

I already had a HK account so edited the three lines to my address then put the others as Hong Kong / Mongkok. Got the 'credit card info is not valid' on a Nationwide Flex Debit Card so I guess that's the end of it or is it best to make a new HK account from scratch?

...and to hijack the thread, I'm having the same problems with the US store and two seperate Visa cards. Is it only Mastercards that work?
