I am trying to buy Tekken DR Online from the PSN, but everytime I enter my credit card info, it says invalid.
Anyone getting this problem too?

Call your CC right now just o ensure it's not locked due to ID theft.

If false alarm, no biggie. Better safe than sorry.

I've heard about this happening to someone else on PSN just recently over the PS3 forums.

I was having this problem when I first wanted to make online purchases. I had to go to my banking website (Bank of America) and change the billing address to my current address. Once that cleared online, I was good to go. Dunno if that's your problem, though, I just feel your pain over that "Invalid Information" error.

I added some funds yesterday and I had no problems at all. That said, it was the second time I added funds to my account and I had no trouble the first time anyway.

Hm, I even added the same CC to my austrian account (as to my main german account) with no problem.

Dunno, surely German (or EU) privacy policies forbid for an Address Check :D

Is it true that you can't purchase stuff from the psn store if you have an german credit card?

No?

Else I would't be able to buy anything :D

I even could buy stuff from the austrian PSN with the same CC :D

I mean new users which create an fake US PSN account. I heard something that you can't purchase stuff from the psn if your credit card isn't from the us.

Never tried to buy stuff from the US... Cannot say.

But, as I said, Austria PSN allows for German CCs. Very glad about that (because of "USK 18" stuff :D Got MK2 :P )

I tried registering my Visa with a US accnount when I first got the system. It didn't work.

Apparently, it asks Visa for the owners home address, and if it doesn't match with the one you've provided, they won't let you use the card.

I have had that happen with certain websites, and others it works fine. Now that I think about it, that last time I used a Visa with no address (It was a pre-paid card) online it was a payment to a company based in Iceland, so maybe it is a US thing to check addresses.
