I've failed to pay DigitalOcean and Namecheap now. The former confirmed it was a fraud check. The latter haven't worked it out yet.
The payments get authorised, then the payment fails on the website.
I assume it's because they're virtual cards?
Mark that shouldn't matter. They are just Mastercards to merchants. Do you see any errors in the bunq app? Have you already asked bunq employees in the Support chat 💬 whether they can see anything on their end?
Hi 👋 Mark
I recall some problems with DigitalOcean from a while back: https://together.bunq.com/d/798-bunq-mastercard-reported-as-austrian/2
Seems like they (still) have outdated BIN-list or other inaccurate checks with the bunq cards. Most likely the same problem with the other merchant.
Oh that doesnt sound good. I just started using Bunq and I have a server with DigitalOcean. Next invoice is due at the end of this month. I guess it's time to move my server to Hetzner, then.
Dennis Or OVH. But have you tried contacting DO’s team yet? They’re usually responsive. No problems with the online cards here at NC btw.
I just paid my DigitalOcean invoice with my bunq online card and the payment went through smoothly. P.S. However, Netflix doesn't accept any of my cards.
Dennis Auch wenn es Dir nicht weiterhilft: Netflix hat meine Onlinekarte akzeptiert. Bei der Einrichtung haben die eine Testzahlung von 1€ abgebucht. Was bisher funktionierte war der Umweg über Paypal.
I experience the same with DigitalOcean again...
