Can't you just use a debit card? I thought you could get them when 16.

Yea, but it doesnt take debit cards through steam - only through paypal or that click to buy thing.

debit card, not credit

ie, can only spend if there's money in it

never get a credit card, i'm 24 and have managed without one, most of my friends have one or many, they're screwed!

Ahhhhh, I forgot there was visa and visa debit

bledd · 29 Jul 2008 at 14:30

it does

basically any shop that 'accepts credit card' takes debit too (i'm yet to find one that doesn't anyway)

lloyds visa debit card here
-edit, ^ahh

Any debits cards other than visa debit will not work on steam = rubbish

I must get a visa debit card....

Its gone out of my paypal account

Paypal can take up to 11 days to clear. That might be the problem?

Funny, I'm 24 and can manage my finances. My credit card is very useful.

You also have better protection when using a credit card for purchases online.

Anyways, its all good now - but one problem. I have both COH and the expansion, but whichever one I click on, it loads up the expansion.

Is it supposed to? Do they merge together?

Doing me heading!!
