    Hello,

    Why can I not make a payment with my BOI Credit Card?
    The amount I want to pay is less than I can spend, so what's the problem?
    I have no other payments pending or blocked amounts.

    I did receive a text from BOI CC Security asking me to verify if the amount I want to pay is a transaction appearing on the card????
    How can it even show up there (and it doesn't) if I can't even complete the transaction?

    I can't get through on your phonelines, please PM me, I want this solved today.

    Hi Matthijs, thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear you’re having difficulties using your card.
    Can you let me know if you've already followed the steps in the text that you received?
    Thanks

    Hi Nicola,

    No I have not, because I really don't know what option to choose would make sense.
    Choose MINE if genuine? Yes, that amount is genuine because I want to pay that amount, but it's confusing, since on the other hand it does not yet "appear" anywhere.

    So, BOI do see appear it somewhere...
    Why was I blocked from paying it then?
    This is security overreach.
