i owe ll 12 bucks for tier that ll told me paypal FAILED to bill, even tho it worked every month since march, the paypal account has the 12 buckz in it. i submitted a ticket and like my 3 other tickets over a month old never got a reply. i tried to hit the 'increase credit' button to pay LL directionaly but they require a MIN payment of 25 bucks when i only owe 12 dollars.


anyone know a way to PAY LL?

thanks?

Another option is to sell L$ at LindeX:

LL will debit from your positive US$ balance before billing your payment method.

Use Live Chat in the morning.

Wish I could help but I took out a Debit Card with my bank that has no annual fee and the Visa stamp to pay LL. Basically a private account only for SL so I can track everything LL does.

Only thing I could offer as advice is to pay them 25 and just keep the 13 left over for later use.

Better to be safe then sorry if you ask me. When i started SL they got my CC info but it has since expired and I have yet to update it. I have been paying the Lindens with $Lindens for many months now.

I started with PayPal, but that got messed up after a couple of months, so I switched over to my debit card, and have had no problems since.

If that was directed at me for the private CC account; Nope. It was a free service offered by my bank :D

They like to prevent online theft and fraud, and it costs them nothing to make the new account and pennies for the cards. Offering the services they do provides them with VERY happy customers.

Do I think LL will abuse my CC info? Nah. Do I think LL can bungle it up and lose my CC info, or make it public due to a glitch? They already have. Heh.

I would think they (LL) would be reluctant to use PayPal. The fees are pretty stiff and I take that into consideration when selling stuff on ebay.

I have been a PayPal member since the first day they opened. I have a PayPal debit card and they actually issued checks to members once upon a time. If you keep cash in paypal get the debit card. I can take the debit card to any Chase bank and withdraw my cash anytime I need it with no ATM fee.

This too shall Pass.

So where or how do you do that? I'm assuming there is a terminal somewhere in game to pay them. Where can this be found?

Actually no...

Sell your L$ on lindex to get a positive cash balance on your account and the Lindens take that first when doing billing BEORE they bill your CC or other payment form.

Been doing it that way for years
