Sorry if this has been asked already. I couldn't find a thread dealing with it.

When I go to put my credit card in SE's account website. It keeps erroring out and wont accept either my visa or mastercard.. Get Error 601 everytime. I haven't tried to buy crysta yet as I want to just pay with a cc.

Am I doing something wrong?

I buy crysta using ultimate pay >> paypal method.

Works well. It seems every time I try to use the direct pay with a credit card, I get some error.

OP, you are doing nothing wrong. SE is.

When we had Play OnLine accounts there was never a problem with my CC. I renewed it on POL every two years when it expired and was reissued by my CC company, never had to pay attention otherwise.

The instant we changed to SE accounts my CC was no longer accepted. So every fricking month I buy crysta from UltimatePay who has no problem at all with my cc.

This HAS to cost Squenix something. I often wonder just how much of my $19.95 they get and how much UltimatePay hangs onto.

Thank you for the replys, because both my fiance and I are having this issue. We both played 11 for 5+ years and never really had any issues. They made us change to click and buy and that worked fine also, now it seems that since C&B are no longer used, the crap just doesnt work lol.

Guess I'll have to give in an buy stupid crysta... Annoying.

Try to contact your card issuer and ask if they have any issue with the current billing operator SE is using. On my region it doesn't ask for the credit card holder name. Some banks will DENY transactions without such information being provided. Make sure you call your card issuer and get information with them about it. :)

No problems adding my credit card here. It already had all my past info. I just had to re-confirm it and select the type of service and payment period I wanted.

Took all of 2 minutes to do.

Weird how it works for some, but not others...

Mariane, I tried both my mastercard and visa and neither worked. I've used both of them in the past when using click and buy for FFXI, so I'm not sure it would be the card providers fault as both mastercard and visa are available to choose from credit card info portion of SE's site.

Good thing is I have 33 days on my account because of first month free. I'll probably call SE and see if they have any info, if not, I'll just get crysta.

So far I've haven't had any issue with using a debit card on Mog Station when I upgraded the account to Digital Collector's Edition. It's a Mastercard debit, too.

(If you have NoScript running, set it to allow gcsip.com, their payment processor.)

As far as payment methods, I highly recommend using Crysta. It's hassle free and less of a headache. Just buy enough to pay out for 30, 60 or 90 days, and that's it. Set it and forget it... until it's time to recharge Crysta again.

Also, when you are at risk of having a chargeback because you had insufficient funds on a debit/credit card to pay for an account, you do run the risk of getting banned by Square-Enix. I've seen it happen years ago to another player, and it has happened recently as last month or two when it was posted on FFXIAH forums. Apparently SE doesn't take too kindly to chargebacks by your financial institution.

So, keep that in mind.

I've been using my CC for years to pay for my account, a few days ago I accidentally unregistered my CC and I'm unable to register SAME card again.

There's certainly something wrong with SE.......

^ This could be it. I'm running noscript and adblock. When I get home later I will give this a try. Someone on the official forums also mentioned this so I think you're on to something.

Ok, well I'm impatient and tried it here at work. Worked fine here and it accepted my card. So its definately the noscript on my firefox.

Funny, I use the most PARANOID level of restriction settings on NoScript and it works perfectly with SE website for anything I do there.

Weird.. Cause I used IE(only browser they let us use D:) here at work and it went through fine on the Mog Station site.

Here is the thread on the official forums.

Hope you are able to get it to work soon! :(
