So here's my dilemma
I've had 3 forms of online payment on my consoles for a while now
Paypal, debit and credit
Mind you, they have all worked fine..up until now that is
Last night I made an online purchase through the ps store using my credit card, everything was ok..
Then I went to make another purchase but it failed due to the fact my credit card is damn near maxed out
Ok..no biggie..next form of payment
Ok Debit, you're up!
I go to checkout but then I get an error that my card information on file was incorrect
Ummm..no it's not but fine I'll check anyways
Everything is up to date, I have funds and my card doesn't expire until 2017
So...wtf
I delete the information on file and carefully input the information all over again
Again, another error code pops up that my information is wrong
I use the card almost daily for gas, smokes, Monster energy drinks etc.
The shit works!
So I then try PayPal
But again, I hit an error that my information on file is incorrect and funds can't be added
Mind you, my PayPal is linked to my debit card

24 hours go by..the next night (tonight)..I try again
I make a purchase using my debit card
It works! YAY!!
I try to make another purchase shortly after
Fucking Error code pops up
There's more than enough money on my card to make the purchase ...but they won't let me

Any ideas?
I'm about to just call Sony and ask what the fuck
But I'll probably just wait it out until tomorrow because I'm tired as fuck and they are going to want me to be on my console and probably have my card on hand, etc.
And rite now I just don't have time for that shit

maybe the first transaction needs to clear.. but then again im clearly remembering purchasing multiple items off the ps store in the same day... soo hmm..

I was short a buck on a $6 purchase one time and it rekt my paypal. The paypal acc was associated with my debit and credit card which was maxed, but I always had it set up to take out of my debit acc. Think I put up a prepaid card and all's been fine since.

Idk
If it needed to clear
Why was my transaction tonight accepted
Then the next, shortly after was declined
I have the money
I've been using these cards for years with no problem
Its so fucking odd
I can see why the original purchase was declined (last night) because I was over my limit from my credit card
But my debit card should work..and it did..for 1 purchase
I just got paid today and before that there was already money on it

Posted this on psnprofiles aswell since it has a larger community base
A few people have experienced a similar problem but haven't really posted a solution other than stating to use psn cards
That's all fine and dandy but I don't always have a psn card on hand lol

i had a similar issue that lasted a while, was happening with both paypal and my credit card
but in my case it refused to work at all (was like a month between like 1st time and 2nd attempt iirc)

it eventually just kinda started working fine randomly and literally just in time when it did cause i nearly missed out on a sale

I have a similar problem as well.. I had to put a new CC# in to make a purchase and it said it was invalid. The card is with the same company that I had used previously, yet it will not accept the new number. I tried inputting the information online from a computer and still nothing. My best and only solution was/is to buy a ps card via Amazon then redeem the code. It is a small pain in the ass, but it works..

Solving the problem would to not have the problem in the first place
So you've been accepting my cards for years
Now out of the blue you wanna give me shit, for nothing
Just take my card like you have been, for 4 fucking years now
Now you want me to get in my car, waste gas and sit in traffic just to get a psn card
That's a problem rite there
Before I could just electronically swipe my card online in the comfort of my own home
