Error when buying Meta Quest Pro

Hello, this is regarding ticket 7018528 ( I think that is the newest one I got ), but it has also been called 7018769, 7018528 and 7018291. All relevant information are in those tickets.

I do not think the chat / email customer support are up to par for this, I have told them the issue several times but i only seem to get automated replies. So i created this Oculus account to write in your forum instead.

I have answered all of the questions about my account already in the tickets so please have a human read the below text.

 

Summary:

I live in Sweden and am unable to buy the Meta Quest Pro from Meta.com. I have tried through two different banks with the same result, and when I called my bank about it they say that the error is on Metas end.

 

Description of when the error occurs:

When i press the "finish purchase" button after trying to buy the Meta Quest Pro and accessories through Meta.com and using Bank Card , it gets stuck on contacting the bank but never succeeds.

 

Technical information and my hypothesis about the nature of the error:

There is an error if you scroll down in the "contacting your bank" popup.

The error is that it tries to open https://centinelapi.cardinalcommerce.com/V1/Cruise/Collect and fails.

As such it cannot do the 3DS authentication.

This is the problem on the page:
On https://www.meta.com/checkout/, when hitting the "Place Order" button a popup appears with the following text

"Please wait while we contact your bank.
This may take a moment."

Followed by an "This content is blocked. Contact the site owner to fix the issue. " where the content related to cardinalcommerce tries and fails to load in.

I am not able to tell you exactly how to fix this, but I do believe that I have narrowed the issue down for your tech team.

Here is some more info about this process, from cardinal that supplies the payment solution.

Suggested resolution of the problem:

Get your internal tech support team to check that these purchases really work in Sweden and let me know if it gets fixed, or if they find nothing and I need to tell my bank to fix it on their end.

Also, please send me a free Meta Quest Pro or something if this ends up being a bigger widespread problem costing you a lot of sales, and if I helped you fix it faster 😉
