OptOut | 8,881 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I got up bright and early to download Metroid Dread for my Switch this morning (downloading as we SPEAK!) but the E-shop was giving me funny business with my cards. Two different cards from two different banks, (which I have used before on there no less) were declined by the E-shop... Never had that happen before I don't think? In the end, I had to link my PayPal to my Switch account and pay that way, still using one of the very same cards that had already been rejected, but they accepted it through PayPal fine... Anyone else had anything like that happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox | 1,665 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Maybe you have gotten new bank cards recently and your old ones are still on file? Same # but diff date. I just use prepaid cards, just to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code Monkey | 2,005 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 My card is saved to my account and I used it to buy Castlevania Collection last week, no problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fcgamer | 4,719 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 No, I haven't had this problem either, luckily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I use CC on the e-shop often (including a week ago), never store my details or link my paypal, and it work me. Just a guess, but if nintendo's bank, that is charging you, is another country, your bank might be flagging the charge and not allowing it to go through (thinking it is fraudulent). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
