    as far as I can make out your balance is MINUS 12 euro !!!! which would mean that you over paid something and they allowed a slight 'overdraft' as it was one one transaction that brought you in to debit .... they obviously won't allow you to make another transaction as you are already overdrawn

    Is it a genuine transaction?

    Sometimes transactions don't get debited from your account for a while, so while you're making purchases in the meantime, the purchase you made earlier could come back and put the account in the red.

    It's odd, because you're not supposed to be able to overdraw a Payzone Prepaid Mastercard!

    You are overdrawn on your debit card, so you need to pay at least €12 to clear your debt and another €10 if you want your current purchase.

    Even debit cards can be overdrawn...

    Go to your nearest payzone outlet and top it up by €25 or something. This will clear the overdraft and you will then have enough left to complete your transaction.

    I'm not sure about Payzone, but in general doing it sooner rather than later is better, as unauthorised overdraft fees can arise.
