Can't buy gems
Hi Volpei, this exact same thing is happening to me also. Just get sent around in circles when I try to purchase gems. In addition, I cannot submit a ticket about it from the Support area, because my (correct) log in details are not being accepted. (Posted about it last night here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/account/Cannot-submit-a-ticket-or-make-purchase/first#post900637)
Hope someone will be able to offer us advice, as it’s pretty frustrating.
Same problem, definitely thought I was the only one. Really annoying. Happening for a few days now.
What means of payment are you using? Credit card? PayPal?
Do you get an error message when you cannot purchase? If so, what is the message?

We figured out the issue and are working on a fix for this. I don’t think it’ll roll out for a bit, so hold off on that purchase attempt for a day or two, then you might find it works just fine.

I’m using a Visa Card and I cannot buy gems since day 1.
I’m also getting the same issue mentioned in this thread. Once I finished entering my card info and proceed to confirm the purchase, I’m led right back to the page of card info.
Is the fix you mention here going to solve the problem for all of us, or is it just for credit cards?
p.s. It is appropriate to let you know that I have created a support ticket for this and has gotten no response. The cards I use work just fine on Amazon.com, World of Warcraft, iTunes~~~etc, so you can see how annoying it is to see that the same cards do not work in Gem Store

I suffered the same problem with both a MasterCard and a Visa just a moment ago.
I have been able to do this previously with a Visa gift card, but for the last 3 weeks or so i have been unsuccessful in using an American Express gift card.
Same problem i’m using a visa debit as well and it takes me back to the previous screen.
plzzzzz help
I’m having this same problem. Glad to hear Anet is working on a fix.
