First of all I am posting on my friend's account since mine is frozen.

Well I bought a game card on e-bay on Saturday. I entered the code everything worked fine and 30 days was added to my play time. However the very next day I couldn't login because my play time was over.

Did this happen to anyone else? I contacted the billing and all they said was:

Q u o t e:
Upon reviewing your account and the game time purchase you made, it appears that your purchase on the Blizzard store was declined. I do not have any aditional information as to why it was declined, but I would suggest attempting the purchase again either online or calling us at billing and account services to attempt the order.


And

Q u o t e:
Sometimes a decline of payment doesn't happen right away. It is not uncommon for a decline of an online purchase with any online merchant to take up to 3 business days before the payment is actually declined and refunded to the customer.
In this case since the purchase was declined, you should be receiving a refund for the amount spent in 7-10 business days.

I apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused, Locky, but I would encourage you to avoid purchasing game time codes from any 3rd party website in the future. While the physical 60 day game card option is available through other retailers, the option to purchase a game time code in the amount of 30, 90, or 180 days is currently only available through the Blizzard online store.
