For my birthday I got 2 Amex gift cards, one for 25 and one for 50 dollars. I really would love to be able to purchase Warden's Keep with one of those cards, but it seems they do not work for purchasing points? Am I missing something or can you not use a Visa/Amex gift card to buy points on the store? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got a Visa Gift Card for $25.00
That got me a $20.00 buy of 1600 points which I then downloaded the Warden's Keep. That left me with less than enough for the other D/L.
So, I went to purchase the $5.00 for 400 points but I kept getting refused.
I checked with the website that I activated the Card from and it showed
Purchase - EA.com for the $20.00 BUT there was also a
FEE of $1.00 for purchasing thru ELECTRONIC ARTS INC in REDWOOD CITY, CA.
I paid a fee for BUYING the card at the store
and now i paid another fee to use the damn card.
Rip off time

hey sir sometimes with cards when buying something the place your buying from will make a charge of 1 buck to see if the card is good but they refund the buck so try it again .and also so you had no problem useing a visa gift card then ??

Am I missing something? Why would anybody need to purchase the Stone Prisoner at this point? I thought everyone that bought the game got it for free?

I bought the game, and the Stone Prisoner is DLC only, which I'd have to purchase, so I guess I won't be doing that quest line. I don't use my cc's online for any reason, old fashioned, I know, but I promised my hubby.
Edit to add:
I'm now an official doofus....after thinking about the above poster saying Stone Prisoner was free with the purchase of the game, I looked again and yes, found the code. I was so excited to play the game that I never turned the card over with the Dragon Blood Armor code on it. The code for Stone Prisoner was on the other side of that card...
..(wish they had a slap my head for not thinking emote)

Well I couldn't buy it with the gift card directly, instead i used paypal and put in the prepaids cards number in when it asked for a credit card, i think it over charged me though, but i haven't had the time to look into it (either that, or theres a fee to combine a card with a paypal account)

there should be like ea/bioware game cards instead of having to buy the points with visa or paypal so u can buy like a card and get a certian amount of points and have a code from the card to redeem or something
