Payment Method Registration Errors [Error Code 401 and 601]

[XioNightshard]

Getting Error 601. Don't feel like buying Crysta or buying a time card that may or may not work. I did get a new debit card between payments but it won't let me update the card information due to this error; the bank isn't the problem as I've already checked and given clearance back during the first payment.

If you can't be arsed to fix the system, I guess I'll take my money elsewhere. :/

Edit: Working now. Out of curiosity, I tried this again, but globally disabled NoScript and Adblock just for the attempt. It went through without a hitch; don't know if anything changed overnight on SE's end but if this was actually my fault I figure I should mention it in case it helps others.
It doesn't work to only whitelist mog station/SE, by the way, as the payment processing service connects to a different site with its own scripts (this was mentioned earlier in the thread as well).

disabled adblock and using your CC again work?

EDIT: finaly did the same as you, didnt work so it their junk that work for some and fail for other.......

I think it was NoScript more than AdBlock, unless something changed on SE's side. I had error code 601 though, not 401 or 406. If you try too many times, they lock your account though.

Nothing seems to be working for me either. Error Codes 406 and 401. Not sure what to do next except wait

I've tried using my own credit card as well having a friend try to use his. Neither option worked. I wasn't able to add Crysta to my account either.

For everyone on this tread trying to look for a solution to this issue I have done a lot of things to resolve this problem. I will list everything I have done as this might be not just one problem. I believe the issued as of today (4/7/14) it has been fixed some how.

1. Your browser maybe blocking a script or Java app.
Some one mentioned this so I removed add blocks and lower the security to allow everything to run (remember to put back to default after you try this). Also updated Java just in case. Also I have tried on another computer and Iphone. This was not my problem but could be yours.

2. The bank of your card is blocking payment because they believe its from a fraud vendor. Just call your bank to see if they noticed the $1 charges on your card and ask if they are blocking payment from that vendor. I got a call from my Chase bank the next day and had to tell them to allow it. (It still did not work for me after I allowed it)

3. If the top options fails then try getting Crysta using paypal ( Id recommend this as you do not see the $1 charges for attempts, paypal just declines the payment if it doe not work which happened to me) Tried today and it worked, it did not work the first 2 times last week.

4. IF all else fails I did have a backup plan which was just to get a time card and because I do not like shady sites I would recommend Amazon.com. Just look up Final Fantasy 14 and in the items there should be a 60 day time card for like $30. (Last time I checked it was there. Never did this option so do not ask me about it if it does not work. I had heard other people call support and force the code in to work but that's about it. The card did say PS3 but from the comments it looks like it works for PC also and that the time also add on to your Vet rewards. Hope this helps anyone.

Just thought I'd add my experience. Hopefully someday they'll stop pretending it's not their fault and fix this.
I keep getting error 406.
I already called my credit card company who said they could see the $1 charge getting cancelled by the merchant. There was nothing wrong with my card nor was there any blacklist against SE.
I have definitely waited more than 24 hours. But since support won't tell me, I don't know if I'm on 30 days block. How many times is "too many" to try using my card? 4? 8?
I tried buying Crysta using my credit card: fail
buying Crysta using ultimate pay>credit card : fail
buying Crysta using ultimate pay>paypal : fail

Honestly why is Crysta even an option? Why does it even exist?
All that's left for me to try is buying the time card. But for the same amount of days I want to add (180 days), I'm paying $12 more.

If I can buy multiple items on Amazon using different credit cards and addresses, why is it so hard for me to buy 1 item off SE? I don't get it. I'm practically throwing money at you! TAKE IT ;_;
