    I'm trying to buy stuff from a US shop online with delivery to an address in the US. I don't however hsve a credit card with a US billing address. Is there any way around this? PayPal? Revolut? Anything?

    Have you tried using your normal credit card and it was blocked/it failed?

    Yes. Tried using a US billing address on it too but it was blocked again.

    I think you can US address as delivery address with your credit card company? I have a vague recollection that I did this before.

    Good to know, might need to fall back on that. I skyped Macys today, it's a toll free number so free from skype. The girl wasn't particularly helpful but seemed to think that if I had an order ID, she might be able to help. So I'll place the orders again tonight, let them get cancelled and then ring back with the order numbers. Will let you know....

    Macy's requires a US credit card for orders shipped to US addresses, unfortunately, so you will not be able to order online, but you can order via phone:
