Unable to buy Minecraft...

[Nintendoobsessed]

I was trying to buy Minecraft, and they kept asking for credit card information. It really annoyed me, but I kept going. Then they asked for a Security Code or something. I'm trying to use my Mom's credit card, and SHE doesn't even know what the **** this "Security Code" is. She thought it was the three numbers on the back, but that's something else.

After trying to get through the system so many times, they kicked me out and said I couldn't use the card. Now what am I supposed to do? Fuck you Notch.

The security code IS the 3 numbers on the back....

You must be retarded if you don't understand how to use a credit card online.

Honestly.

You can buy a prepaid Minecraft card in stores.

Call me later, we need to talk about your graduation and what you want for dinner tomorrow.

Otherwise I think you just made a typo somewhere.

I have used several banks, in a few states. I have never seen a credit/debit card with a 4 digit security code. I have fucked up thinking it was correct and it was not, that is also plausible.

My bet is he's trying to do this without mommies consent, and has no fucking clue what numbers go where, even though they spell it out for you.

I used those numbers twice, and that was when I was kicked out.

american express - on the front, 4 digits
everything else (visa, etc) - 3 digit on the back
parent not knowing how to use her own credit card - lolling from here to right over there

Okay, technically there are 7 on the back: 4 numbers, a space, then 3.

Also, it's not the Security Code I need, but the SECURE CODE. I looked on the official Secure Code website, and it's something completely different.

Also, when I try to get the code reset, it's not accepting my credit card information for some reason. Everything is accurate, I checked it with my mom...

your first post said "security code" so it's hard to know what you're saying now! Trying to buy minecraft now, it's asking me for a security code which is pretty standard for any site you use a credit card with.

Your best option at the moment would be to go to a store like CVS, Walmart, etc and buy a pre-paid debit card with cash, or to get one of the fancy minecraft gift cards in-store

Well, the nearest Walmart is 45 minutes away.

So I can't go for two days.

And I told my friend I'd be on Minecraft tomorow.

Summary: Fuck you Notch.

1. Everyone knows the security numbers are the 3 on the back

2. Minecraft is shit
