Visa Electron - both of them...

Neither Visa options work - comes back saying card number doesn't match card type...

I had a problem like that, they some places now have upto three different options for VISA cards, VISA, VISA Electron, VISA Debit and so on, just got to make sure your using the right one.

I know, I checked afterwards, but why should I pay £21+postage when I could pay £17 all in, purely because I have a different card!?

Think I've got it sorted now though - Unit20 have very kindly offered to acquire it ahead of a visit to them! :biggrin3:
Is there anything those lads down there won't do for their customers......... NOPE! Top form again! :lol:
Even when I start my new job in a few weeks, which'll mean I'll potentially be all over the UK, car's going nowhere else but Unit20!
