For an individual situation like this, you really must contact Support by filing a ticket through the “Ask a Question” tab on that linked page. They will be able to assist you.

And thank you for supporting our game through your gem purchases — we really appreciate that!

Hey there, Ryodan. I just read a post by a helpful player on this link: https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/payment-approval-failed-SOLUTION/first#post2422048

I think that may help you as well. Could you give it a try and let me know by posting here? Thanks!

Thanks for your help, I went to “Ask a question” and filled everything except for “Billing info” that says “Last 4 digits of the CC used to create the account or Paypal InvoiceID, and Billing Zip/Postal Code” What exactly should i write on this?

For those areas that you’re unsure about, please write None so that the ticket can process with as much info as possible, but without a delay due to some questions being irrelevant or unanswerable.

My friend told me that this once happened to him, and it worked the next day, i hope he is right, guess i will have to wait, Thanks for your time

Happy to (try to) help. You’ll update, right? I’d sure like to know that this all sorted out well for you.

I worked!!! but i still couldn’t buy the options that gives 2800 gems for 35$, But it worked when i tried getting 1600 gems for 20$, I got the 20$ twice so i can get what i wanted,
I am so happy, Thanks a lot for everythingDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

So glad that worked for you, and thanks a bunch for reporting back. It’s good for us to know what works and what doesn’t, so we can help other players.

Enjoy!!
