Can’t purchase

For 5 days now Ive been waiting for an answer as to why I can’t purchase anything. 
im getting no explanation. Im just being told thats it’s been escalated and under investigation. I have no idea why. 
I haven’t been able to play. So, while waiting for an answer I bought 300 dollars worth of gift cards. I put them on my account and guess what ? I can’t use that either.

does anyone know why this is happening?

they are explaining nothing.

I am strugling with the same issue on Meta Quest 3 more than week. I added 3 credits cards to my payment methods, I created Paypal account but nothing works. Still waiting for a solution from the suport team. I bought Quest 3 but cannot used it because I cannot buy anything from the Meta shop. 

How to fix this? Can anyone help?

Hi to all pissed off Quest 3 users.

I have found a way to work around the problem but I coudn't solve it. Forget about buying a gift card on Amazon. I dit it and now I cannot use my money. I tried restoring goggles to factory settings, I deleted and added credit cards to my account using app on my samsung note 20 and by pc. Nothing works.

I have created another Meta Quest account. I added this new account to the Quest 3. I added the same credit card to the new account and, finally I could buy an application I wanted. Now I have 2 accounts on my goggles.

Good luck.
