So i made i minecraft account with the same name as here, and after getting internet in the first time in years, i enter my only cr card a debit mastercard with plenty of money on it and... We're sorry we where unable to deduct 26.99$ from your account. HELP PLEASE i have wanted minecraft for so long and i hate playing that non-downloadable minecraftforfree.com one. so do i have to wait for the xbla versian or what?

mojang support doesent do anything

Minecraft for free what?

How long has it been like this? I'm not sure what you can do, but you could try again tomorrow. Mojang makes it a challenge to buy games from them.

I think he means the building version. Where you only have the ability to delete and spawn blocks.

I also had trouble purchasing Minecraft online.

However, I was using one of those pre-paid "Vanilla" Mastercards, and my problem was that I just had to login on the card's website and register my postal address -- essentially online shopping is impossible until you do that, which you think is important enough for them to WRITE IT SOMEWHERE SO YOU KNOW.

When I was trying to figure it out, it seemed like lots of people had various payment problems of Mojang not wanting to take their money.

It seems the common solution was to use their card to put funds on a Paypall (I think it was Paypall, anyway) account of theirs, then purchase Minecraft via that, and supposedly that works seamlessly.

i have been hearing of late about problems purchasing minecraft and minecraft gift codes. i do not know why it is happening but its been noticed and mentioned by some of the relatively popular youtubers who play minecraft so i expect that it will be adressed and solved soon.

p.s i would not get the xbla version, it does not look like it will be as good.

Compared to PC it'll be very limited, though Mojang are trying to get Microsoft to allow mods and texture packs for it. It'll still be far behind the PC version though and won't likely catch up until the game is finished 100%....Never then

Sorry pall was in the same boat as you and you gotta use paypal, or maybe a pre paid visa card.

no i mean www.minecraftforfree.com

No, you mean a malicious scam.
