I'm still waiting to hear back from my petition, but has anyone had trouble buying a plex with a Visa giftcard?

I suspect it would vary from country of issue to country of issue. The gift cards we can buy here in NZ are typically accepted just about everywhere; whilst I know from what I see on MMO forums some of the ones issued in the United States are treated very suspiciously and frequently declined.

The problem is that you did not register the giftcard with Visa. If you do not do that, you cannot use it through the interwebs. This info was provided to you in all the paperwork given to you with the card.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

US gift cards are only valid in the US. You can't use one to purchase time directly from EVEOnline since it does not charge from the US.

Start the day off slow and taper off from there.
