Hello AdboY, Thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums
Although payment errors are not something that we can assist with here on the forums, due to your personal information being needed to look at your account, I can offer some suggestions.
Have you waited a full 24 hours and then tried to use Pay Pal to purchase Crysta? A lot of players have used this as a work around for payment errors.
Hope to be of assistance. -

I've seen TONS of forums where people have been complaining about this since 2013....... what a disgrace that this issue is still so huge. I just started but i cant buy anything from the shop either. I cannot buy boosts, clothes, mounts, or even more play time. its like they WANT this game to die. My friends and I have all submitted plenty of tickets with this same concern and same issues but we have all been ignored. This game WILL die from this.
