Payment Authorization Failed

Post by FranzVonG »

I'm trying to buy FoG with relative expansions, but every time I check out I receive a red "Payment Authorization Failed".
I'm using a regular VISA cc, that I use often online without problems.

Please, how can I give you my money? :lol:

Sorry you are having problems. Is this a digital download or boxed copy you are trying to order?

digital download, FoG + RoR + SoA + IF.
I've tried again this morning, keep failing.

Is it normal that the security number (the 3 numbers on the back) is never asked?

EDIT: I've also tried with other 2 different cc, same results... If the shop it's working as intended, I'm doing something wrong on my side.. :x

Where are you trying to order from. Obviously its bad if any order is rejected....

Is there a reference number anywhere in the order process you can give me to track it down?

I'm trying from Italy, with both VISA and MasterCard, but still no way to complete the process ("Payment Authorization Failed" when checking out).

Reference Number: 8828816324.

One thing that I've noticed, the ref number is always the same, no matter how many times I log in/out, change products, empty the cart, etc.
And even logging in and out and empting it, the cart keeps my previous selections (I've tried both with Firefox and IE)...

Thanks for your help :wink:

I've tried with another CC and finally it worked.

Thanks for the help

Glad it worked but I'd really like to know why it failed - not many people would be as persistent as you!
