Just a short update.

KorgUK state....

"This web page provides instructions and details for downloading and purchasing KRONOS Sound Libraries.
Only credit card payment is accepted. (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and JCB)".

Check this for your own country...it may be different.

Best Wishes.

Nice work William. That's the way to do it.

Would one person try a debit card over there in the civilized World? You blokes take things too literally, and you use too many "U"s. Sorry, it needed to be said..

I mean try using a debit card where the Korg UK site says it only takes credit cards. Any debit card with a mastercard or visa logo will work anywhere it asks for a credit card anywhere I've tried it.

The "too many 'U's" thing was just a joke about the Queen's English vs American English. I have a Triumph, so I frequent forums with a lot of British people on them.

As far as I know there are no debit cards with VISA or Mastercard logo. At least not over here. Definitely worth a try if you can find one.

Here in the UK,debit cards usually have VISA and begin with number 4
Credit cards have MasterCard,some have both and begin with number 5.
This may well be different in other countries.

When I tried to use a debit card via KorgUK,following entering the numbers the system wouldn't proceed any further onto the next part of the transaction.
(The first number would have been the card type identifier etc).

I'm sure it's not an isolated problem for some,so it's worth contacting Korg Support for advice,as they would have alternative suggestions in place.

Had a similar occurrence when I wanted to purchase Karma software,some time ago,the system rejected my visa debit card.
However,our good friend Stephen has assured us that it will accept visa card payments.....so,perhaps I made a mistake with the number entering at that time.
I was succsessful with the purchase by using the workaround method previously mentioned and all is well.

I realise this was a joke,of course,but I still don't get it,despite being native to the UK etc.

Best Wishes to All.

i for example was not aware of the difference :lol:
guess i don´t belong to the civilized world then ;)

As it was to expect in that case, Korg switzerland has nothing to do with the library deals,
......no hand from there.

A Friend will help me purchase, but he´s busy and under stress.
Its not the thing i´d want to ask for every two weeks or so to get another Library.
anyway, i will get me a own card now too, with a own bank account for it...might take time as far i know me :oops:

i don´t like paypal, but in the case of purchasing EXs librarys it would be a good move when Korg would accept it.
also because many Musicians have there some extra coins in the flow......
sell, buy, sell.....you probably know it :lol:

You can buy a prepaid card from Credit Suisse.
