Why not just buy from somewhere else? There are multiple companies that sell tablets with different payment methods.

If your that stuck, buy locally.

that's the thing, is not something easy to get over here that's why I buy it overseas like many other of my friends.

plus this shouldn't be fair because it basically put me in a spot of '' You can't buy things online''.

It didnt happen before and sudenly now is a thing.

Ah, so I am guessing your not from the US?

If so, I don't believe currency-use evidence is a "country" thing. I believe it's more company based policy with transactions overseas specifically.

I agree it's a ridiculous hoops-and-bounds kind of policy, like standing at a DMV or DSHS here in the US.

Sorry to hear about your troubles. I'd say contact a customer service rep, and ask what it's all about.
