DLsite got a new method of buying points a bit ago, ViviON Points. You know the drill, we don't accept Visa and Mastercard because they're puritan fucks, so buy points at this place that does and use them here. Tried to make a purchase through them. 20.25 USD, though the page says "Payment will be settled in TWD. USD price is only for reference." That's Taiwanese dollars; for reference, 20.25 USD is 646.33 TWD. Alright, whatever, fair enough, confirm purchase with credit card. Except my card's declined. A bit of texts and calls latter and I find out they were trying to charge me 646.33 USD, and thankfully my bank's good enough to go "whoa, hold the fuck up."If you're trying to get hentai off DLsite, don't use this shit. I don't know if it's malice or incompetence, but either way it's a fucking scam.
>>8962277Maybe there was a mistake down the lineThey link to multiple point buying sites, wha did you use?
>>8962305https://global.dlpoint.net/shop/indexThat one. I guess it's DPay, not ViviON? I don't know. It's the one marked as "recommended" for international users when looking to buy points.
>>8962277I would imagine it takes the same effort to post this as to just contact their support. Better yet copy your text from over there to here
>>8962403It takes even less effort to just buy points in some other way. Who said I'm looking for support?
>>8962403Actually, wait, this gets even better. You gave me the idea that yeah, I probably could contact their support. E-mail's right there, and I could at least chew them out for this shit. Did so just now, and...>Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.><[email protected]>:>550: 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknownThis shit just keeps getting shadier. I'm starting to worry about giving them my credit card.

>>8962445and they have a 30K points option.
Massive W to anyone dropping gift cards. If I catch then in time, I'll upload doujins.
I did use the ViviOn option to buy some points a few months ago. It does look weird during the transaction, but I used a prepaid mastercard because I do have concerns about mistakes like this. See picture how it looked, especially the purchase part with -$665.06, but transaction was in TWD
Just use ForBooks like a normal person.
>>8962729I was looking at that. Are they legit?
>>8962779I use it to buy points all the time, yeah. Never had any issues.
>>8962620This
>>8963154Worked great. Thanks, anon, I'll use them for this from now on.
Worked on my machine
>>8962729Last time I tried it It asked me for a JP phone number. Did something change since the last 2 years?
>>8962729Aaaand, it's gone
>>8962277viviON is the parent company of dlsite, so they are not scamming you>>8970673Sad to see it gone, but Bitcash still works so I'm good
not dlsite instead it's iowl but anyone know any work around this? My visa credit card is getting rejected even though it's buying coins over there.
If anyone has a few points left over and like seeing the girl in a swimsuit, I found a great doujin.
>>8962729Its gone it stopped doint gift cards. I'm done with dlsite now. Its to hard to buy stuff if your not Japanese. I still buy on fanza.
