Last night i tried to buy lindens ..was told that it couldn't go through because of billing..blah, blah ( forgot the exact wording, but it said something about updating my billing info ) my billing info IS up to date.. they just took my monthly payment out with no problems on the 3rd. Just to be sure I called my bank today to check my balance and I have more then enough money in there..lol... anyone else not able to buy lindens over the past few days?

have you exceded your monthly or daily limit buying limit?
If not, sorry I am not sure you need to ask a Linden about this one.

Lexii, you're not alone. All of my payment info was wiped out, apparently (or so the SL web site said), and it hasn't let me re-enter my info (which was already correct to begin with), meaning I no longer have a credit card regisitered with Second Life.

Also, sent emails to Support, Land, and Concierge and have gotten no replies yet, and the blog post about billing problems hasn't been updated.

Personally I only get that message when I use buy feature in game to check what 800k in Lindens is worth USD cause I was drooling over a sim being the primholic I am.
My daily limit is 2500 usd but the land was 2700 usd.
I don't maybe things are being buggy. Give few days perhaps it will go away by itself.
Linden's are pretty busy but sometimes I found they have shown up in help live during this time of day and helped with things. They tend to be there during the day during regular work week.

I heard that it is near impossible to buy a Linden. And anyways, all the good ones are taken.

Did you ever get a reply?... mine's doing the same thing.

They haven't updated the blog since Friday. http://blog.secondlife.com/2007/04/05/we-are-currently-experiencing-issues-with-billing-processing/
