    Purchasing Items

    When purchasing BBs or other items from the bank, the process is pretty much the same.

    Note: The items, layout and cost of the items may vary depending on the country you are based in.

    First choose the items that you wish to purchase and add them to your cart.
    You can add multiple items to your cart and pay for them in one go (this is not always possible for limited items bought via the billboard or a game pop-up)

    Use the tabs at the top of the bank screen to browse the various categories, remember you may need to use the scroll button to see all the tabs.

    Details of the items can be seen by clicking on the blue "i" symbol.

    Contacting Payment Support

    Due to the sensitive nature of financial details, we are unable to deal with these on the forum. We therefore suggest that if you have any problems with a payment you have made, then you need to raise a payment support ticket. If you are unable to make a payment, then please contact the general support.

    Click on the 'contact support' button, choose a category and complete the form with as much detail as possible. Some of the details will already be filled in, please check these are correct.
    18.gif
    Once you have filled in the form, hit the send button. You will receive a confirmation email, and somebody will look into the problem for you and be in touch, normally within a day, at which point they may request further information.
