Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

I read the book its not that i think. Amazon is intentionally making. It fail to,hold the money longer cards are valid no,probleme,just on amazon there is a problem

Read the first 10 thread in this Amazon folder

Went out and,got a good gift card and same problem so its amazon not my method. Ill just take the loss and,let it sit.

I think they're cracking down, I just tried to open up a new seller account and got "The credit card information registered to your seller account is invalid"

Visa Gift Card is valid and has $15 dollars on it ...

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

I was having trouble with gift cards and never had in the past.

I called my Visa issuer and Amex and told them I lost my cards.

I then got two brand new card numbers in the mail. I then called up visa and amex and said I needed to add "additional shipping addresses" to each card.

This will then allow you to pass the numerical street and zip check...

Cheaper and easier than spending $$ on gift cards.

CITI Visa will also allow me to create a virtual cc that can expire in 90 days. That should work too

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

Did you use you real name to open those accounts, would they get linked because of that?

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

Seems like they have finally cracked down on most of the gift cards. Tried 5 so far from various banks that used to work and none of them have been accepted. Uh oh!

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

it seems Amazon.usa is finally cracking down on all Gift Cards

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

It seems they're detecting all Gift Cards and declining them now

I heard that the first 6 digits of the gift card (referred to as the BIN number) are an identifier that tells you what bank issued the card and what type of card it is - debit, credit card etc.

Very simple for Amazon to know exactly what card you're using.

I have the same issue today with vanilla visa. Will try a different prepaid card tomorrow.

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

Wouldn't be hard for them to do so...hopefully just temporary ...glitch

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

Just tried to open a new account and vanilla visa didnt work for me... doesnt seem like a glitch..

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

tried opening an account and the same invalid credit card issue
used the $25 vanilla master card
it has always worked in the past

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

Yea none of the gift cards work anymore, call your bank and add a temporary adress, I was able to add one online for chase with out calling. Make sure you have not used the card on amazon, doesnt matter what name you use as long as the adress and zip matched and its have not been used with amazon

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

that can be done online ,ive tried it.no issue there .but imagine trying to change your address more than 20 or 30 times .wouldnt that sound suspicious

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

It definitely would ... I think from now on stealth sellers are just going to have to be ALOT more careful from now on about making sure to maintain the few accounts we have.

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

I used an AMEX gift card today without issue. I had to try it a few times. Make sure you type out the name of the state on the billing address and do not use the acronym.

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

was the card of a 25dollar denomination or higher
thanks

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

It was a $25 card.

Re: problem invalid cc amazon
 

was the account creation successful with any other card you tried
