Does anybody else suffer from CCP and SEPA?

So ... one of my accounts was set for a three month subscription and I can't remember why I unticked the ongoing payment option thingy, but here I am now.

I can't enter my bank account data, because the web interface doesn't accept IBAN and IBAC.

I have sent a petition, but the category either has lots of petitions or isn't at top priority.
I don't complain, as that doesn't help anyway.

I'm just wondering if others suffered the same? It's my dedicated boosting alt. Painful... :(

You shouldn't need to enter an IBAN number, just use the 16 digit number on your Visa or Mastercard debit/credit card, and for the CVN use the last 3 digits of the card security code printed on or close to the signature strip (4 digits for Amex).

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Maybe OP does not want to / can not pay with a credit card?

So get a debit card. It functions exactly the same as a credit card, except you're only spending money that you actually have.

File a petition with customer support, you should know better than to feed the trolls in GD with your story.

I don't want any additional cards, but thanks for suggesting it. I don't see this as a solution to my problem, but I didn't ask for a solution in the first place.

Fair enough. To answer your question, I haven't had an issue like this before, but many years ago I did have several issues with CCP where they would take my monthly subscription fee but not apply time to my account & deny that they ever received the money in the first place. It took 3 chargebacks & not playing for a year for that problem to go away.

Unfortunately you're stuck with the methods of payment that CCP accept. The credit or debit card mechanism is pretty much the norm now, because it's seen as quick, easy and "secure".

HI All,

I simply got a throw away visa gift card you can buy at any supermarket with no forms to fill, you load it with the exact amount you want at the check out and use it online like you would a debit card.

This is not like going to the bank to get a debit card, but rather like a gift card.

What do you mean additional card?

You have to have a bank card right, to get money from the wall etc?

Just get a debit card.

This is how you do it if you lack a credit card.

Here in the UK, don't recall having seen 'gift cards' from companies like VISA, only get them for stores/chains. But doesn't everyone have a debit card?

Can you link PayPal to your account or do you need a card?

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

I don't even know what a debit card is.

I don't use PayPal.

It's funny how so many give advises nobody actually asked for.

The only card I have is the one that's connected to my bank account and lets me withdraw money from the ATM ... thus 'additional'.

You can only use Visa gift cards online with domestic companies.

That could be a debit card. It could just be a simple ATM card. If it says Visa or Mastercard, it's a debit card.

Ah. No, doesn't. It's the card from my bank. I get the point, though.


It's really interesting that nobody here says a word about CCP not having a SEPA conform web interface,
although it's what us europeans are forced to use, when it comes to banking stuff.
