You could also buy the online codes for the cards through amazon. I've never bought anything PSN related on amazon, but I did buy Live Points. The process is really smooth and you get your code instantly, which you can redeem as you would a normal card. Basically saves you a trip down to the store and encourages those midnight shopping sprees. They also offer a selection of games/add-ons, in case you don't want any leftover credit.

Happened to me a while back, very frustrating. Weird thing is, I never had an issue with my billing information when I purchased stuff from the PSN before. So I started getting the error, decided to try and change the billing information, and I couldn't get it right again. So here's some advice, whenever you get it to work don't change anything, if it starts giving you trouble again just leave it. My problem persisted for about a month and eventually it fixed itself.

Edit: Try removing PO and write just BOX. Also, you might want to read this.

Hey, I am a new PS3 user. I just bought my system a few days ago, and am enjoying it very much. When I went to my account management to add funds to my wallet for the first time, it keeps giving me errors that my credit card information is incorrect. I double checked and triple checked the number and everything and it is correct. My name on my card is all in CAPS, so I even tried that, but that didn't work.

Although I think I did finally get it right (though I still can't tell), but I think the main problem is that it's not recognizing my billing address. When I first signed up for a PSN account, I used my physical address and not my mailing address (which is a PO BOX). In retrospect that might have been a stupid mistake on my part because I think I might have confused it.

When I went into my account management, I put it in my PO BOX as the address. I tried entering it with just the PO BOX number, and with PO BOX, and that didn't work. I got out a statement from my bank, to see how my address was on there. I entered it in verbatim (it was also all in CAPS), to no avail. I live in New York, and on my statement it is abbreviated as 'NY', but on the PS3 settings, every state is written out and not abbreviated. I don't know if that's making a difference or not.

Needless to say I am frustrated. I have tried close to 20 times, doing everything I can possibly think of. I have thought about just opening a new account and see what happens, but I want to try anything you guys might have that I could be missing. This whole thing seems to be really finicky. I have everything entered, it just seems like it's choosing to read it differently.

Thanks.

So true! My VT30 has much better colour accuracy compared to my previous Sony KDL W4500. Watching planet earth on it for the first time was incredible :D Never seen a TV picture this good before.

And the brightness is perfectly fine.

Yeah, I think I have it down to these two TV's. I'm just thinking if I want a 60 or a 55 inch. I got really spoiled with the 65 inch DLP I had before that I didn't have to pay a dime to get. LOL The 65' VT30 is way to expensive. The 55' one isn't bad. But, they have a 60' inch ST30 that's only $200 more. I mean, is there a huge difference between those models (VT30 and ST0) in picture quality and stuff? I just have a pretty big wall space that needs to get filled.

[QUOTE="Mozelleple112"][QUOTE="matt091282"]One negative I've been reading about plasmas is that the colors and brightness aren't as good as LCD. I kind of find that hard to believe anyway. Can't you always just increase the brightness anyway? lolBen-Buja
