HELP ordering seeds from Attitude seed bank to the USA

I want to order some seeds from Attitude seed bank and have them shipped to the USA. However I hear that some credit card company's will try and block international transactions, also issues with customs. I was wondering if anyone has order seeds from Attitude from the US (recently) and if so did you have any problems? Also, Would it be a good idea to just buy and load a prepaid credit card for ordering seeds to make things a little easier.

This will be my first time ever ordering seeds, so any advice from people who have "actually" ordered online seeds would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Call your credit card company first and ask them to remove any blocks on overseas transactions. That cures that 99% of the time. And people get seeds daily here in the US from Attitude and others. But please - check out Sea of Seedss. Cheaper prices, more in stock and far cheaper/better shipping.

I am also having this problem. I have been trying to order seeds from different sites but all of them keep getting cancelled. the pre-paid gift card i bought wont work either.

I've used both bank cards that I have with no issues. I also live next to an AFB but 6 months ago my house was actually part of the base. Had multiple orders sent here with no issues. I think that the foreign transactions that are blocked are in person ones. Whatever you do, make sure you get the guaranteed shipping by buying a shirt etc
 
If you do plan on using a prepaid card make sure it is capable of overseas transactions. I got a bunch of em for Christmas a couple years ago and not one worked overseas even when I called the number on the back and requested that it work for overseas transactions.

Many card companies block overseas transactions. Requesting they remove this block costs nothing and it works immediately. Refusals happen daily and are easy to fix. Not talking "one shot" gift cards but debit/credit cards.

If you credit card is not letting you make the transaction you might try with online virtual credit cards. You just create an account with one that allows transactions from you credit card company and once you have funds, you can pretty much use it as a credit card.

The only problem that i had with tude purchase it was that i had a cap on my daily spending on my debit card that i didn't know of , and i was pissed why it's not going thru , u c i'm a strain junkie u can say when i buy seeds i buy a lot and whole bunch of different strains because i like to try new stuff , and one time my order eds up to pretty penny and didn't wanna go thru , i call my bank up and ask them what's up , and they told me that i have a cap and the purchase that i am trying to do is 8$ over my limit , and i ask them can they make an exception for those 8$ and they told me "sorry that's the bank policy" ... and i have to give up one strain for the time being but i get that one later on :d

If they block transactions, you wont make it through the order on attitude. Call your bank, confirm the transaction and ask them to lift restrictions. I had this probably years ago with edit. Seems every time I get a new bank issued card I have to redo this.

I've order about 4 to 5 times now live in Cali. Just call the credit card company and put international purchasing on it.

Don't use attitude, they are the absolute worst company... Just kidding, I love attitude. Make sure you tell your cc company to take make sure you can make overseas orders because my buddy didn't and they froze his account and he shit bricks. He grew some balls and went to the bank and it turned out they did it because they thought his info was stolen but then they fixed it and everything was well and the seeds came in intact. Good luck buddy!

They actually did that to me on this last order. Was a little pain in the ass. I called my bank and they asked if I made a purchase out of states told them yes and they fixed my account. If you do it online on your bank account or call them should have no any problems. I skipped that step last time.
