[quote=GUESTJUINMING,365994]I have a bad experience with China online payment system. When i tried to book ticket online on China Southern Airlines, when go to payment web page, the popup message said that i can use bank card (in china, they call the bank card is debit card) with UnionPay logo to make the payment. OK, i put my bank card (mine have UnionPay logo) number and the webpage said that my card is not supported (sxx). I tried to pay by my international credit card and after 10 times submit details, the webpage return error (no explain). Tried many times and luckily after about 10 times tried pass to checking page. After few seconds, the page turn back to CSA webpage with message "could not processing, you can wait few minute and try again" (very polite ;-). I tried 2 times the same and the 3rd time the online payment page show me that "2 transactions fail, do not allow more transactions" blah blah. I tried to call service centre alot and always get advice "you can try other computer, other time, other credit card" and "you can ask your chinese friends with his/her credit card to help you". After almost a week to resolve the case, finally i came to the agent to buy ticket and have to pay 700RMB more then the online price. my bad luck. [/quote]
