 Poster: A snowHead
|
Long shot I know, but I am just trying to buy the family lift passes from Ski Amadé ticket shop and pay for it using my Revolut account card.
However this is being declined. I know others have used Revolut here, has anybody had these issues? Has anybody successfully used these to pay for the lift pass tickets for the Ski Amade region?

Last season I tried to buy paradise ski (Les arcs + plagne) online. Trying to buy both at once it was declined so I then did one at a time with no problem.
This year, Snow card Tirol (in person), at pretty much the same price, went through in one go.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@NickyJ, Revolut doesn't always work for online payments as it is a pre-payment card rather than a credit card.
However, there is nothing to gain by pre-buying Ski Amadé lift passes online. You simply buy them at the lift base station on your first day, no cost difference, no queues.

@NickyJ, I’ve bought passes online and at a Ski Amadé Office using Revolut without problem. One thing to watch which caught me out was that I hadn’t allowed online use for my Revolut card the first time I tried and it got rejected. Just check in the app that online transactions are enabled.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@queenie pretty please, are you sure no queues? We will be going half term, so idea of already having them in hand appeals, that way they can be safely secured in children’s coats in the warm.
@geepee, thanks. Weird thing is the app hasn’t told me it has blocked it, like it did when I tried the contactless payment which hadn’t been authorised. It seems to have been “declined” before reaching them?
Thanks Both

Have you got money on the card in the right currency? Think that’s been a problem for me in the past.

@SnoodlesMcFlude, yes made sure there’s enough there and in Euros.

@SnoodlesMcFlude, it shouldn’t be a problem with Revolut as long as funds are on the card it’ll be paid at the current conversion rate between currencies. That one caught me out when I forgot to top up with Sterling and made a Euro payment. I had some crypto currencies on the card and it was converted from them.

Well the settings appear to allow online transactions but maybe they work in the inverse to how I think so will change that setting and try again.

@NickyJ, Switch should be in the right hand position and blued on the left.

@NickyJ, UK half term coincides with semester holidays for one area of Germany, north Netherlands, Steiermark and Oberösterreich, i.e. it's not the busiest week here by any means. I don't ever recall seeing a queue at a lift station to buy lift passes. If you go to Radstadt and time it right, you'll have no problems.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I've definitely had a problem in the past where I had sterling and couldn't withdraw euros

You know it makes sense.

I contacted them and sounds like the website is trying to do 3D security which their cards down support
