Like some other posts that I can see here, I've had trouble renewing / paying for my membership recently. This arose in the last few weeks as I needed to get a new debit card due to my old one being used fraudulently (elsewhere). Of course, my auto-renew then didn't work. I then find that I cannot used my new (AIB Visa Debit) card to pay with 48 as it fails the security test.

I've contacted AIB and they say there is no problem at their end and that the problem is that 48 are trying to put through a 'test' transaction of €0.01 - but the (updated?) Verified By Visa system will only recognise test transactions of €1.00 or more. This will of course happen to anyone using a new card so we can expect to see more of these threads. 48 support were no help - perhaps they might see this and get their act together?!
