Q:
Cannot purchase gems.

A:
Gem cards are an option for many players. They are widely available at local retailers.
In addition, you might submit a new ticket (since you wrote in during the conversion period) and reference your previous ticket (include all the text, please, and the 12-digit ticket number) so the team can review the issue and perhaps make some suggestions on how to make things work for you.
Thanks for asking!

Perhaps, purchase gems cards at a retail establishment?
