My payment is not being authorized by Adobe

Hello!

I am unable to subscrube for Adobe's products because my payment is not being accepted by Adobe.

There is only one method to pay in my country (Bulgaria) and it is through credit or debit card.

I tried more than 10 times now, using different cards with even different Banks but every time I get the same error:

"Incorrect billing info

We are unable to approve your transaction at this time.

There are a number of reasons for order failure, among them errors in the payment information, or billing address, or an inaccurate email address. If you have verified your information and are still unable to place your order, please contact Customer Service and order by phone. Call +44 203 0277 764."

I even tried the credit card my brother uses to pay his membership without any problems every month (I really hope I would bot jynx it not I have written it) and I got the same result. I have tried to make a payment on May, 1st, 4th, 8th and today - June 4th without success. I checked my payment details and I can see that the payment is being registered at my bank but the sum is not authorized (confirmed) on Adobe's end. Also, I have spoken with different operators in Adobe's chat support platform, explaining what the problem is. I've been redirected from Department to Department without any resolvement being offered.

I also checked with my local distrubotrs but was told that they are not offering the subscription I want to make.

I would very much like to buy a subscription for InDesign, so please someone help me!

Well, this is primarily a user-to-user Forum – so we here don't really have the power to help you, other than to say to make sure and confirm that your address (and country) is correct & consistent between your payment provider and your Adobe account:

 

https://account.adobe.com/communication

 

You can also possibly try to use PayPal to purchase your subscription, if offered by Adobe in your region.

 

But otherwise, the only folks who have the ability to work on account payment issues is Adobe C

Hello Bev!

I went through the payment process again and it seems to be working as I can place by card details now, I already paid last week but the people in Adobe Brazil said they couldnt accept and cancelled. I went to the payment page again and it seems to be working and accepted my card. We I shall await what the results will be.  I would be grateful if you can keep an eye on my payment process and liaise with Adobe Brazil. I have given all the correct details of my bank......as I said I have no problem using the card in Brazil and have subscription with Filter Forge.

Best regards

Peter

Beverly,

We have been having trouble everytime we try to process payments. Been happening for the last 6 months or so. Our users keep getting alerts about payment but nothing I do fixes. The card in use has no issues anywhere except for Adobe purchases. Adobe says call bank I do and they don't see any transaction. Very frustrating.

I always get: "We are unable to approve your transaction at this time.

There are a number of reasons for order failure, among them errors in the payment information, or billing address, or an inaccurate email address. If you have verified your information and are still unable to place your order, please contact Customer Service and order by phone. Call 1800 426 570."

I call support and sometimes they fix it but the last time they said it was fixed but I still get:

We couldn't process your payment with the information on file. Please update the billing info on your account to make sure your service continues. Update billing info

Hi,

I have recently subscribed in order to purchase your Photography plan but I am also experiencing the same issue when trying to place an order:

"Incorrect billing info

We are unable to approve your transaction at this time."

I have already tried using multiple debit and credit cards but the result is always the same. Also contacted your support over chat like thousand times and they were not helping at all.

Also I have called my bank and they said that no transactions or attempts have been made from your side.

Could you please check what is wrong and why my billing information is not accepted???

Hi Peter,

Try logging out and logging back in again with the Adobe ID (email address) you used to purchase the subscription plan:

Learn how to activate and deactivate Creative Cloud apps

That should activate the software for ongoing use if it has not already happened.

Hi Beverley

I hope you can help me too. I was on the basic photography plan for about a year. No problems with my card or payments going through. This last week I decided to upgrade to "all apps". It quoted me a certain amount, different to the amount if I was a free member buying for the first time.

I was told I would get an amount refunded and then the new subscription would be charged.

Today I get a message saying "Adobe cannot process the transaction".

This is using the same card as before, no change.

I am temporarily in Vietnam but do not want to change my ID as I am a South African citizen with my permanent address in South Africa.

The worst part is I have been changed to a free member meaning I have no access to my photos on Lightroom and Photoshop, where I was storing a lot of work.

Please look at my account to see what has happened. I don't even have biiling history. I am very frustrated. The bank approved my transaction, Adobe didn't ??

Hi Beverley

Thanks so much for your support, and the support of your team. I have never experienced such fast and efficient service from a large company such as yours.
