How to pay these days using bank cards ?

[kalutfern-0]

Previous days ebay didn't accept bank cards . Are there any solutions for that?

Call your bank.

You probably alrready know this but it has nothing to do with ebay.

Google "news Sri Lanka economic crisis"

(Sri Lanka banks blocking payments to foreign countries.)

If you're trying to use a debit card from Sri Lanka, there's a notice on the Central Bank of Sri Lanka website, that says they are allowed to be used for foreign transactions, but that some individual banks have limited their use for foreign currency transactions.

you are from sri lanka no?  In sri lanka these days most buyers are facing this problem. but anyone hasn't recognized yet what is the reason for this error. Sri lankan Banks have been said it is not their fault and the central bank as well. only solution is you can try to pay via paypal. and another solution remaining, that is you go to the ebay live chat and tell them that you are going to pay for an item and tell them to have a look on your account while you are paying. That solution is using most buyers in sri lanka in these days, Good Luck

@kalutfern-0 , first, you should be reading previous questions and replies. It is getting really old posting the same answer over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

If you're trying to use a debit card from Sri Lanka, there's a notice on the Central Bank of Sri Lanka website, that says they are allowed to be used for foreign transactions, but that some individual banks have limited their use for foreign currency transactions because of the bank's foreign currency reserves.

You may be able to use the card if you create a PayPal account and link the card to the PayPal account. Some people from Sri Lanka have reported that this works, possibly because PayPal converts the currency, and charges the payment in the local currency, rupees.

Or, you can try a card from a different bank, but that will only work if the other bank has enough foreign currency on hand, and hasn't put limitations on foreign currency payments.

Contact your bank, debit cards from Sri Lanka haven't been working.

It isn't going to do any good to waist CS time with this, they can't make your debit cards work any better then you can.
