I though Click and Buy were based in the UK.

they are a UK based company, but apparently they process payments in the US as well from a US headquarters.

I'm just saying it COULD be a user error. Although it was confusing to set up for sure.

I think it's very possible it could be both.


I set up a few accounts for people a year ago due to them becoming very frustrated with the process. The accounts set up didn't have any problems. We all used Click and buy to purchase 1,000 crysta before billing began. I got receipts in my email, and the banks didn't say anything. I remember the registration was really way too confusing and brought back memories of my impatient teenage self trying to figure out how to set up billing in FFXI (which had me in tears T_T)... this was worse. Why they would chose this method is beyond me...

Is it possible that it's worse for people with more then one character or paying for larger amounts of crysta?
I only used the 30 day option and only bought enough crysta to pay for one month. Same with the other accounts. All of us only paid for one character. I am not sure if this makes a difference or not.
Before billing started I went into each FFXIV account, opened every option (payment method, period length) and selected and confirmed everything again to make sure it was all refreshed. I had to add a new card to the click and buy account, because the one a year ago expired. I tried the ultimatepay option but that one was terrible and wouldn't work...

I wish I could help more. :< I hope everyone gets a chance to play again. Don't give up. ^-^

I used this game card with no issues. You can easily find them at any Walmart or Target. I think any gaming store might carry them as well. Hope this work-around helps some until they can get their issues sorted.

Thanks for the tip, I'll pass it on to my friends. ^_^

no , UGC only pay for crysta via "UltimatePay"
but ppl in case didnt have the option "UltimatePay" ,
simply, SE didnt offer any method for them to buy "Crysta"
only have "Credit/debit Card" option to pay(and then , yes, via C&B)
for US/JP user, its weird and hard to realize , but for EU user, its a pain hard to say

my C&B account is temporary blocked for some reason.
i can't verify my CC because of the two random amount they charge not coming in USD in my statement.
i convert the amounts to USD then write it down there but still not correct.
did that for like 6 times then my CC got expired because you entered the wrong confirmation amounts 6 times. ><

i think better if i tried creating new account but i'm not sure if my CC will work on other account

one more thing, when i tried to add crysta i get this error:

ERROR (11000)
This is an invalid operation. Please log in again from the top page.
(Please do not perform operations with multiple windows open or using your browser's "Back" button)

does that mean my region is not supporting crysta?

Oh, it is this poster again. Posting the same thing in every thread. I hope you didn't pay for the game. Nobody cares what you say on the forums, so I am safely betting that nobody plays with you in the game either.

ApplePie another troll in our wonderful forums. Deadriser happens to contribute a more valuable opinion then that of a lvl 9 FSH. If you want to do something actually useful, how about exercising some patience SE is working on additional payment options that should fix the problem.... oh wait I forgot your entry into this thread was attacking my friend Deadriser... Seriously dude, you got better things to do with your time. We've seen this thread over and over and over again, quite honestly it's getting old. If you don't have the ability to pay, I'm pretty sure SE is aware of that and is working as fast as they can to implement alternatives. Does it make sense for a company to not want business?

I happen to play with Deadriser, were really good friends. Don't go off assuming things, it makes you look bad.

Its my banks mistake, for sure.

Its also SE's fault for having terrible options for payment.

How hard is paypal. Seriously.

I had issue with Click and Buy too when I registered a year ago to my SE account.
My bank called me as well that my card was blocked but I was able to unblock it by calling them...

There is something about Click and Buy that triggers the fraud system at the bank apparently.

<-- Trying to set up C&B during September 2010, success, 2-3 months later receive Letter from C&B, my country card is not accepted, 'is ok since is still free, then came news that will have more options, feel relieve, but sadden that they did not make it in time on 6th January 2012,

Now... can't pay and play.. suck. there is only C&B, no Ultimate Pay, not even Crysta.

Locked out. No Crysta permitted in Australia and my Bank is too sexy for ClickandBuy.
