Not sure anyone of you having the same issue as i do.

I have UOB VISA Card
AMEX and Maybank VISA

I tried purchase from US Store, but failed, tried all the card above. previously, i was able to purchase using either UOB VISA or AMEX, now, both of it can't go through: Error Msg: Invalid Card information.

OK seem like it's US PS Store problem, I try purchase it using my Asia PSN Account access to ASIA PS Store, same thing happen, all the cards above cannot be use on PS Store, I have no problem using my credit card adding fund into my paypal..

anyone of you heard anything about this be4?

sony is using Address Verification Check (AVC) for credit cards on all their psn stores now. so unless you are using PSN cards, you will not be able to buy anything from other PSN stores.

Thanks for the qualification, but, how to explain when come to Asia PSN store? i using the same address appear in my CC & PSN Billing address...
*
if you are using MY PSN store, your credit card will have no problem there. but if you try it on SG or HK PSN store your credit card will not work. AVC applies to all PSN stores world wide.

so you are stuck with MY PSN store if you want to use credit card.

Thank man! my Asia PSN Store (MY) is working now, all I have to change is my first name and last name to match with my credit card information. so now, i have no issue adding fund using cc on MY PSN Store.

it's sad case they applied AVC on all the PSN stores, so that mean now i can't buy anything out of MY PSN Store... gayyyyy...

you can still use PSN cards to buy from other PSN stores.

so anyway. ive been using my visa card for MY psn store for awhile now. but i kept putting it on and off since i dont want
my number to be stolen. just bought onslaught bfbc2 a few days ago. and now i kept the same detail again
and it says card invalid? anyone experiencing the same problem?

maybe it could be error for today?
*
your details don't match your credit card info in psn. maybe that's why your credit card is rejected. sony is using AVC on all credit cards now.

Hello, My phat 40gb ps3 just got ylod after update to 3.40. After update it still fine for like 1 minutes then it got yellow light. I'm sure its not overheating cuz i turn my console on just to update. Btw i'm update using usb. Now my console cant turn on. When turn on, it got green light, then yellow light and last flashing red light. Please help.
*
my friend experianced the same thing like you but his ps3 did not die immediately after update to 3.40. it only died when he switched it on the next day.

his ps3 is working now. he did it this way:

1) turn off the ps3 by using the power switch at the back.
2) wait 30 seconds.
3) turn on the the ps3 again and if it comes on, set deep video color to OFF, under display settings.

after he did this, his ps3 is working without any problem.

i have one question here that seems like a beginners question.
you know the picture that shown as wallpaper background when you highlight a game (downloaded games) or when you insert a game disc (not sure what to call it),
how do i take that picture into my picture library? or make it my theme background?
*
you can't take those pictures, dood.

im wrong on this after did some search on net for Dell ST2410 just for you. usually the pc monitor, you need y-splitter to output the audio from the ps3.
here some quote from the review on that monitor you are using:

from kohlerville ( http://source.kohlerville.com/?p=355 )

just give it a try. i dont have the monitor, only the hdtv. cheers

ps: i see nwk reply to others while ignoring yours. i think hes the type who like to put a single comment while letting people who did throwing out the question in puzzle after reading his reply.

thanks for the compliment, dood!!! thumbup.gif

clap your chest and ask your appetite la. is the 100++rm saving worth it for warranty from mal? to me worth every sen. my rule of thumb: any electrical products must come with warranty in country of residence, else no go.

sony my warranty really worth it, dood. if ps3 suddenly ylod at least can send in for repairs or replacement. if imported set ylod, either you throw it away and buy new ps3 or find somebody to repair it.......
