I just tried adding funds to my PSN account through my debit card. When I entered my info it said something was wrong. So I just tried to change my billing address to my PO Box, and it said it was wrong too. So I tried to put it back to my street address just to make sure, and it said it was wrong.
Then I looked at my checking statement and it has the PS Store taking 3 dollars ($1 an enter) out of my account, but pending. How is this???
 
Let me give you a few tips, since the PS Store CC info is VERY finicky.

-Does your billing address MATCH the address your bank has on file for the debit card? The two MUST match. For example, if they list "maple st", you better enter "maple st". If you enter "Maple St." as an example, you may run into a problem.

-Another common problem is if you are entering an apartment number, you normally have to put it into Address line 1, while the rest of the address should be entered into address line 2. If there's no apartment number, then info starts at address line 1. MANY friends of mine made that mistake.

It's because when it goes through the verification process (which is why you have a $1 hold) to assure your card is real and everything matches. As long as it does, it will successfully charge a certain amount.
 
All I can say is that you have to make sure the address you use is what your bank has on file for your checking account/debit card.

As for the 3 $1 charges; the Playstation store is just "probing" your account to make sure there's sufficient funds to transfer. I think the maximum amount you can put in your wallet in one shot is $50, so maybe you have to have at least $50 on your debit card for it to work.
 
Well my bank has my postal code with my po box number after it with a dash in the middle and I can't enter a dash in the PS Store
 
Hmm, that's kind of weird, because I never knew anyone who had that issue. Anyway, just don't try the P.O. Box again UNLESS that's the same as your debit card.
 
I know it's the right address, I checked my account. Then I just tried entering my info in the PS Store with my PO Box number after the zip without the dash and it wouldn't work either.
So I'm just gonna change my address on my debit and wait 3 days to be able to use it.
