I've used my visa previously to purchase Live point with SG account and SG address but since citibank has issued me a new gold card and the number change so I have to add new payment to the system. This time..what ever method I tried seems failed;

1. Using my credit card billing address except for postcode - failed
2. Using SG adress - failed
3. Using web browser and went to xbox.com and try to add my credit card detail also failed
4. Tried my Mastercard and other visa credit card also failed.

Now i'm clueless but resort my problem by purchase the live point card from PA. Damn, have to wait another 3-4 days from fedex.

I tried purchasing some points recently using my EON Card, and it's working fine.

Maybe you can call your bank up and ask them whether there are any transactions from the Xbox Live service.

I suffered from the same problem with the PSN. Apparently, the bank did not approve the card registration to the service because PSN charges 10 cents to the card to determine the validity of the card. In my case, it's not until I give EON a call.

If that still doesn't work, there's always PlayAsia or your local game shop.

sounds to me they have already tied your account with the first card. i have read that they will tie your cc for life when you use your cc. so all is fine if you never change cc but if you want to cancel your subscription your SOL as you have to jump through a lot of hoops...

Yup. Happened to my friend. They tied the acc to ONE CC, so there's nothing he could do. In the end he cancelled his CC and got a new one. Lesson learnt: with MS, stick with prepaid cards, LOL.

hey bump this thread as i also have the same problem.

i understand now that only one CC is tied to one account. which explains why i couldn't add the same CC to my US account as i already have it tied to my SG account.

now i think i have to check with the bank if they blocked it as they maybe detected the card to be registered under 2 diff postcodes, and thought it was fraud.

bought MS points before this and renewed to GOLD, no problems whatsoever.

looks like i have to wait till my MC debit card activates for me to use it with my US account. sweat.gif

hmm...that's weird. other people have no problems purchasing things...so don't think there's a blocking issue from MS's side. I hope so at least.

Ah well..if indeed my CC is blocked by the bank..they would call me up soon. I tried purchasing from xbox.com with the same error - invalid credit card information, or something like tht.

aww man..hope they don't block because of the region thingy man...stupid MS if they do... vmad.gif

US live accounts couldn't buy ms points online for more than a year already. but for subscription fees, the card is still works. maybe they're starting this for SG accounts too?

i've been using asian point cards to buy MS points.

Hi guys, just want find out whether MS has totally blocked Credit Card from Malaysia? I used to purchase the MS live point thru market place using my visa credit card with a valid singapore address, but last few days I'm not able to go thru with the transaction as it cannot authorised my credit card. I know that the recent dashboard update, there's some impact on these. I did change my address same as my CC billing address except for the postcode but it's unsuccessfull  sad.gif . Does anyone of you experience the same thing or you guy still can purchase using your CC? Does this mean I have to purchase the Live point card from PA? reason being is live point card only offer 1600 point but marketplace offer 3 type of points. Any suggestion and help from you guy is appreciated!  rclxms.gif

Thanks

Hmmm just noticed I can't use my CC also for points purchase on my SG acct. Didn't have this problem before.

Anyone else?
