    Hey fielp, it might have had some restriction linked to it.

     

    In any case, I'm glad everything is back on track. Let me know if you need anything else!

Hi fielp, welcome to our Community! 

 

Sorry to hear about that. If you have a PayPal account, can you try using it in order to upgrade? 

 

Also, is the card authorized for online use too? I know it sounds trivial, but have you double-checked all the info that is correct, and up to date? Based on the error, it sounds like it is coming from the card's end.

 

Let me know more!

    Hi Megan,

    Checked everything with the CC provider. If PayPal is the only option left I can try that. But I prefer a CC over a debit card/Paypal

        I used my Revolut Visa card and that one did work.
        Still no clue why the ICS credit card didn't work..
