I'm sorry for posting this in another section.

But I figured it would be appropriate to post it here as well.

Here is my dilemma.

I've been playing the Phantasy Star universe Demo online for a while now and I really would love to finally get the full experience.
So I plan on buying PSU very soon.

The thing is however, I know no other methods of purchasing a guardians License outside of having a credit card.

I really want to play this game but I do not want to have to get a credit card.

I currently have a ADP TotalPay Card from Money Network.

This is the card we get paid on at my current place of employment.

It is a Visa Debit card.

I've tried to add this to may Pay options on my Xbox Live account but to no avail.

Is there any way I can purchase a guardians license with this?

And if not are there any other ways (besides getting a credit card) to purchase it?

Maybe PayPal?

Sorry.

Perhaps I should have phrased that better.

What I meant was that I had been playing the demo for a while.

My xbox live was cut off about 7 or 8 months ago and I have only now started working again inorder to get it back on.

So do you have any suggestions to my problem?

I really would like to play the full game.

You can put a Paypal on your XBL Account and buy it but they dont have pre-paid cards so you can only purchase online from marketplace. Just go to add Payment options on the Dashboard and it should be right under "Add Credit Card" to Add paypal. Hope this Helped!

Thanks.

But can I use a Visa Debit card to add funds on my PayPal?

Or do I have to have a credit card for that?

From what i see you can as long as you register it with the 3 digits on the back. Best way is to set up a paypal account and try its free

Thanks.

I have a PayPal account but I just have not added any funds to it yet.

I do not see a option to add funds with a debit card however.

Ok thanks.

I have a total pay card from Money Network.

It is a visa debit card.

But when I tried to add it to my Xbox live account it did not work.

Hopefully PayPal will accept it.

Ok I have finally linked my debit card to PayPal!

Now I have 1 more question.

Do I need to transfer money to my paypal account?

Or does it automatically draw money from my debit card when I make a purchase using paypal?

really sorry for the triple post.

But I finally purchased Phantasy Star universe.

Afterwards I installed the expansion pack for it that is supposed to let you play online.

But when I tried to purchase my Guardians License I get a error saying "Can't retrieve information from xbox live. Please try again later. status code 80190821."

I'm not sure what the problem is.

I finally added my debit card to my xbox live account through paypal and I have been purchasing stuff from xbox live all day.

I have more then enough money to buy the guardians license so why is it not letting me purchase it?

Please help.

You might not have it set up to cupport recurring payments. Only pre-paids i know of that work for psu would be a green dot card.
Try looking up your payment history online too see why it will not work for your pay pal.

How would I go about doing that exactly?

I have done just about everything so far.

I have called the Xbox support line and talked to 2 xbox live reps for almost 2 hours.

I linked my debit card directly to my account because they said it may be a problem with paypal and I still was not able to buy it.

I then was told to call my bank because it may be a problem with them.

I then called my bank and they told me everything is fine and I have more then enough money to purchase the guardians license.

I then called Xbox Support back and they still could not help me.

I just do not understand what the problem is.

I have a visa debit card and have used it on xbox live not to long ago to buy games and Live points but I still can not buy a guardians license.

Magosai finally helped me in the Tech Support section.

It turns out that for some reason it will not let me purchase a guardians license while the game is in the console running.

But after I took it out and went to the marketplace to purchase one it worked.

Weird huh lol.

So a moderator or admin can close this topic if they want.
