Amazon Stealth account down for invalid Credit Card?
I just had my account go down for invalid credit card. It's not suspended, just I have no access until I update the Credit Card info. I called the bank that I had been using Debit Card for that account (stealth) and they said that "Visa" has refused the transaction because the information given did not match. I asked what that means, and they said something I entered during the transaction didn't match the account, maybe I made a mistake in the number or address or something. That is surprising as that card has been on the account for the past year without any problems. I tried re-verifying it on amazon, account was up for 5 min and went down again. Any ideas? The address on the account is different than the Amazon Stealth account address, just the same zip code. I always thought that Credit Cards on Amazon Accounts don't have to have the same name or address, and amazon only needed credit card number and expiration date of a valid credit card. Have things changed? What needs to match now? Full address match? Name on account match or doesn't matter? What should I do? I don't think I can change the name on my debit card, but I can surely change address to match my Amazon Stealth account... would that be enough?
