please ensure that this address exactly matches the address used on your credit card statements.


Which is all very fine and pleasant, until you notice that they don't give enough address lines for you to be able to do so.
The upshot of this being that they won't accept my Solo card, so no UT2004 for me.

Oh right, sorry.

They're both viable, but the reason I was trying to get it off play was so I could save £18 or however much it is.

Send an e-mail to Amazon with a link to the site and say that you'd rather buy it from them if they offered you it at the same price. What have you got to lose?
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.
