I think you're missing something. I bought both Vanillia Sins and Entrenchment off impulse using my Visa debit card. I suppose it might be a problem with your particular debit card, i.e., it doesn't accept that particular type of card.

You've checked to be sure you're putting in the number and the pin number correctly, right?

It would have to be one of those debit cards that acts also as a credit card.  My bank for example issues Visa Debit cards.  Works wherever they take Visa, and takes the money straight from my checking acct.

If it says Visa, and you have enough on the card for the purchase, you should be able to use it.

uh...  this still hasn't exactly been resolved...

That it was not processed...

That tends to be difficult for me...  Paren'ts hate buying stuff online (as they were victims of identity theft a couple years back.  We got all the money back though and he went to jail, but still...) and my brother won't buy me anything.  He has paypal, but I think the last time he bought me something was about eight years ago...

If you have a debit card, you will be able to use pay-pal...

Myself, i use my own bank account for send amount of money to pay-pal... need around 3 working day for they receive it...

Only back side, since you don't use a credit card is the transaction limit who is only 1500 euro year...

For info, i am located in Belgium and the pay pal account is in Antwerpen... Each European country have a local account so you don't need to use european wire banking system... local one work perfectly...

About bank to bank, don't worry about identity thief... ofwell, you go to your bank agency for make the payment, ofwell you use online banking ( who need a special calculator who use a challenge, your bank account number and your pin code ) where nobody can retrieve your identity... have try online bank account secure with finger print but forget it... afinger a little dirty, with a cut or other problem and you cannot log !!!
