I have a ******************* (gift card) that has $14.85 in charges on it from this company that I have never heard of nor do I have an account with. I want a refund of this as soon as possible from this fraudulent company. The first charge was on 8/5/22 & then more on 8/6/22 until all the funds had been drained to .15 cents. I have attached a copy of the transaction history as documentation.Business Response

On September 8, 2022 I pre-ordered ***** I accidentally left out a letter in the recipient email and needed to have it fixed. Well I emailed the company in regards to this issue but have not been helped. Being that I spent $99 on this game I want my money back for the unprofessionalism and terrible customer service. This is ridiculousBusiness Response

I've been trying to contest a false ban from xsollas payment services for a long time now but I've only ever been given the same automated replies about fraudulent activity.
I've been willing to verify my card, emails and payments but never been given the option too.
Payments from my multiple game accounts during a x2 topup event I assume lead to "fraud detection" being triggered.
But being hit with a 3032 error and never being given the chance to verify myself has been incredibly frustrating for myself and MANY others in the Flyff Universe community.
I'll provide any documentation needed upon request from an ACTUAL person.Business Response

Hi. Like many other FLYFF Universe players, I have ran into Xsolla payment shenanigans and have been blocked from making any in-game payments. I have contacted them many times about it, as it says to do, But, I have yet to get a proper response from them to resolve the apparent issue. I can verify everything, as I only used PayPal. So anything you can do would be much appreciated. Thank you. Here is a copy of the error code I have upon trying to purchase.
***** Sorry, the payment cannot be completed now. Please try again later or contact Xsolla Customer Support.
This error may appear when your account is blocked on our system. Please check your account for previous chargebacks and contact us to resolve this issue.Business Response

I have transactions on my account that I did not authorize. A total of over $400 has been taken from my account. I have never dealt with Xsolla. I am not a gamer either. How and why are you charging my account?Business Response

Hello *****,
we are sorry to hear that you faced the issue with fraudulent payments.
We were able to locate your request in our system. As we see, our support agent has already submitted a fraud claim regarding your unauthorized transactions and these charges were refunded.
When we receive any notification about fraudulent charges, we block the whole access to our payment platform for security reasons. So, the account linked to the payments made from your account was also banned. That means, you won't see any charges for Xsolla in the future. Thank you!

my son made a charge from my card to his game account for roblox and I did not recognize the charge so I contacted them to dispute it. Upon realizing the mistake, I tried to contact them to have the charge authorized and the game account reinstated but they refuse and say the decision is final. That is a problem because of the amount of money spent on this game and no longer have access to any of it. I either want the disputed charge authorized to go through and the account reinstated or every charge ever made on the account to be refunded back to the card it was authorized from.Business Response

I have been trying to purchase in game currency with my own real money for a new game (Digimon RPG) for several days now, however, the third party company (Xsolla) my payments must go through keeps blocking my payment methods. i.e. my debit card, paypal, and Gpay which are all linked directly to my bank account. When I contacted Xsolla by email they assured me it was my bank blocking the transactions. I called my bank and asked them to allow the transaction, however they were never flagging the transactions to begin with. They even allowed an attempt through on my paypal, picture of this transaction which has been pending since the 27th of July is attached. This transaction has NOT been refunded nor accepted by Xsolla yet the money has been taken out of my checking account regardless sitting in limbo. I would like Xsolla to just accept my payment and give me the in game currency and stop blocking my perfectly legitimate purchase attempts. The other game run by the same gaming company with Xsolla as the third party never blocks my purchases which is suspicious to say the least.Business Response

Hello *****,
Sorry to hear that you faced this issue.
One of our main goals is to provide the highest level of security for our users. Sadly, the payments were stopped by our security system. The system is always being updated and analyzes many different factors before declining a purchase.
According to our information you have one successful payment dated 2022 Jul 27 that was credited to your game account. Please check your inbox. We have sent you a request for additional information. We will check your pending transaction. Thank you.

I no longer need your assistance with this issue as DRO's support team helped me get the transaction cleared by contacting your office directly. They even had you take down the security that was blocking my debit card for no reason. Apparently I am not the only customer having this same issue with your support sending the same excuses of "it's your banks fault" when in fact it is outdated security on your end. Thanks to DRO's support team, I am now able to spend money to my hearts content without a problem now. With your support team it was just the run around I was getting. Perhaps you should retrain your support team members or actually use real people as it seemed like all the responses were automated which got me nowhere. Sorry, but I cannot accept this response as the games support team fixed your issue for you in a much more timely manner and more respectful as well. I am satisfied with THEIR efforts and not yours.

We are sorry that you faced such issue.
Xsolla is committed to providing the highest level of transaction security, safeguarding customer information, and combating fraud.
Please note that our security system is always being updated and analyzes many different factors before declining a purchase.
We have carefully investigated your case. Unfortunately, your payments were stopped by the system. After you sent a request to our support, our agents recommended you to retry your payment later when the restrictions are removed. After this, there were not payment attempts. We would kindly ask you to retry your payment if you like.
We are very sorry for the inconvenience, but sadly, it's not possible to permanently change these settings due to security reasons.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our support at *************** and we will assist you.

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
I went through emailing the support folks on three separate occasions. Each time they said, "we have removed the restrictions, try again in 24-48 hours".
At no time did this solution work.
Fix your broken system.
Business Response /* (4000, 12, 2022/08/22) */
Hello!
The last payment attempt for the game account associated with your email was made on July, 30.
As we can see there are no restrictions for your payments at this moment.
Unfortunately, your previous payments were stopped by our security system. There could be several possible reasons:
- Too many purchases in a short period of time
- Using several payment types or game accounts
- Submitting a large payment
It's hard to know for sure, since the system is always being updated and analyzes many different factors before declining a purchase, but those are the most common.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
Please do not hesitate to reach us at help.xsolla.com in case of any questions. Thank you!
Consumer Response /* (4200, 14, 2022/08/22) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
1) I made a grand total of maybe $30-40 worth of purchases with the same payment type at the point you decided to restrict my account.
2) THREE separate times I contacted support, a miserable process itself, and each time they said "restriction has been lifted, try again in 24-48 hours". Each time, after 48 hours expired, I tried again. And each and every time once again my attempt was blocked.
Your security model is horrible, and your implementation of it is even worse.
Yu have made no proposed resolution other than me running into the same issue yet once again.

They send you in circles. I went through 3 cycles of waiting 48-72 hours to try again, and their system never let payments go through.
We are continuing to go in circles.
I will *not* accept their resolution, nor do I expect them to improve over time.
Please leave this as a permanent unresolved complaint.
