I can t add any credit card to my account. I tried 6 different credit card master, visa, American Express and debit. No luck. I couldn’t buy any thing for 1 year. Is this Facebook Oculus!!! Why you bought oculus!!! To make more harder to serve oculus services!!! That is enough for me. Just solve my problem. You have big problems but no one can see these and no one try to solve it on your team!!!!

different computers, different networks, different credit card types AND NO LUCK TO ADD NEW PAYMENT METHOD.

They are solved my problem with these error screen shots.

When open support ticket, you have to tell them to provide these question answers;

Recently made a successful online purchase from a US merchant?
Check to see if the financial institution placed any restrictions
Try another network connection type
Try another network location
Try different combinations of the area/zip code
Restart the device
Try another device
Try another payment method

I recommend that you send the answers to these questions in your first ticket message to reach a quick solution. My problem solved in two weeks. I don't know why I get this error. They did not explained anything to why occurs this problem.

I hope anyone can solve who gets these error messages. Now, i can add payment methods to my account.

I’m experiencing the same issue. Bought my Oculus 3 days ago and haven’t been able to add a card. I’ve tried all of the methods recommended by support such as using a credit/debit/paypal account, different device (laptop,phone,oculus) different internet connections, and still nothing. After scouring support forums to hopefully find a solution I’ve only found others with the same issue. Quite disappointed with my purchase so far, I know it is a great system but not if you can’t buy any games within it. If you happen to find any solutions or the support team fixes it for you please come back and let us know in the comments.

But they don't solve anything. There isn't any response on any tickets. I don't understand how Facebook can do this!!!

Facebook began to be incapable of moving the companies it bought such as Microsoft forward. They also talk about metaquest. You could not solve the credit card issue, metaquest will be a burden to you.

OculusSupport is here 🙂

These methods are not valid for us. This problem occurs with facebook account. Because I created new facebook account and I was able to add payment method to Oculus. BUT I don't want to use another facebook account. I prefer to use my real facebook account.

I opened ticket and waiting for response. I will be share the real solution if my ticket solved.

The Oculus Support account here says to PM their account, but don't do that. When I did it, they messaged me back saying to contact support via this link:
https://tickets.oculusvr.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

I did a web chat with a support person, gave them all my info, and they said they'd get back to me in 3-5 days.

Yes they so slow to respond messages. You have to follow ticket replies. I hope your issue will be resolved soon.

Hey, fellow gamer! We noted that you've encountered a system error when you tried to change the form of payment on your headset, and we'd be more than honored to assist! We recommend performing a factory reset to refresh the software on the headset. Click here to view the steps on how to perform the reset on your headset. Before the factory reset is done, please ensure that the cloud feature is enabled. This is to make sure your data is retrievable after the reset has successfully been carried out.

I see you’re replying to almost everyone but me. Is my issue that complicated? I can’t add a payment method…… I don’t know why this is so difficult to fix. Shouldn’t your entire business model be centered around receiving payments?

Same issue. I have tried everything. I have created no less than 4 separate tickets. One ticket said they fixed the issue. It was NEVER fixed. I have been unable to purchase anything all year! This is ridiculous. Even with the tickets, ZERO fix! I’ve tried Different networks, computers, phones, debit cards, credit cards, PayPal.. everything. I wrote them several times. No fix. I tried again today, after weeks, still nothing. I’m going to turn this in and tell everyone not to buy it. Waste of money. Terrible customer support.

That happened the same to me and I tried changing everything I don’t know if I should get on my Oculus and do the payment

Support fixed my issue a few days ago. All I can say is keep asking for updates in the support chats.

I'm having the same problem. I also can't even reply to the email completely (since no actual live support is available for this problem!) as I have no info from recent purchases to share because I can't make purchases. GRRR.
