I dunno why but my credit card does not add eshop cash to my account. this problems has been with me for months but now I need a solution...

What happens is,
I fill in the details of my Credit card but after some time, it says that this credit card cannot be used... After a few minutes, there comes an SMS in my father's phone that xx money has been sent to "nintendo digital". I didn't even get any eshop credit...

I don't know what the problem really is. The problem could be that-

My father's credit card pin code is 6 digit and what my 3DS can take is 5 digits. I put the same zip code I put in my NNID. This could be a problem...

but I highly doubt it. The 50 cents credited for my NNID were sent peacefully...This problem is only occuring for adding eshop credit... I don't know what's the matter... Plus, why is Nintendo taking Credit card details again when we put it in our NNID already? I need help...

My 3ds is US north America region if that helps...
Thanks :D
 
They're only going to accept US credit cards if you're using the US eShop. Funds aren't going to be added from non-US credit cards but they'll still take your money, however it will be refunded in XX days.

Just don't continue trying or you'll be charged again and again. I wrote about it here - http://3dspedia.com/nintendo-eshop-...-error-but-nintendo-charged-creditdebit-card/
Oops! Should have asked this question a lot earlier. I already used 6 credit cards of my dad to get $20 :eek:
But then question arises- How was the money for making my NNID credited???
If it can't accept anything but US cards, the NNID credit should not have worked, right? :eek:

What do you mean by "for making my NNID"?

You only use a credit card for adding funds to your eShop balance. I think when you create a Nintendo Network ID, you have the choice of entering your credit card details although I'm not sure. You aren't using your credit card to add funds.
 
Since u live in India, I recommend getting prepaid cards from sites like Play Asia, and entering the codes that come. You can use Indian credit cards and PayPal.

It does ask 50 Cents for some stupid reason...
