Need advice on online application payment by credit card.
Today i was finalised and went to the last page of my online application -175. At present i m in Bangladesh, I have relative in USA. I used his credit card for payment. There are a 16 digit card number and a 3 digit pin code for the card. I submitted the card number and including all other information such expired date, name in card, i pressed the submit application. After submission i got the message that the submission of application failed as it couldnt transferred the money from the bank. It asks me to contact with the bank. I couldnt understand the reason. Can anyone tell me whether i need to give the pin code also? If yes then how can i add the pic code with the number? Is there any other reason for failure. Please help me. The card is sears master.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Rifat.

Re: Need advice on online application payment by credit card.
There might be another reason:
Some credit card companies also check if the payment matches with the regular payment history.
This may also include bigger amounts in a foreign currency/country.
I had the same problem with my credit card when trying to pay the bond for a car rental.
The only way to find out is to have your relative calling/informing his credit card company.

I beleive some also match the address of the person requesting the service with the address of the card.
If I was a bank and saw a USA card being used for a Bangladesh transaction, I too would be suspicious.

You and me both I would have thought the name on the application should match the name on the card. Most airlines won't accept ticket payment with a card of someone not on the booking sheet, the same probably applies to visa applications with DIAC.

I would be suspicious too, but not surprised. The money is being deducted by DIAC but not by any Bangladeshi company. At the most, the US Credit card company should contact the person who hold the card and confirm the payment.
I do not expect everyone to hold a credit card (with a credit limit of 2010 AUD) and getting a demand draft (in AUD) in many countries is a real Pain in a$$. There should be a way out for such people.
To the OP:
Please call up the credit card company and see what went wrong.

I think there must me some issue of Credit limit only.. or otherwise..
Your country's internet server doesn't allow using credit card details of other country.. (That's u know internal programme error , which doesn't accept any short of payment details of other country's people just for security point of view).
You have an option to get ur form filled by that country (USA - i suppose) ask ur concerned person over there to fill the visa application form on ur behalf.. you can also supply the details of the form to be filled via email .

It doesn't matter whose name is on the credit card. When I worked for the agent here in Perth there were about 5 different credit cards we used for payment, none of which would have had the applicant's name on them. They were corporate cards in the name of the agency and the individual agents.

I also used another person, my agent, card to pay for my application fee and had no glitch with this arrangement.

Thanks all for their comments.
I have a relative in Australia. He dont want to give me his credit card no as for his security. He said that he can make a Master Debit card and keep the application fees in there and will give me the number. Can I use the Master Debit card number for payment of application fees? Please give me your opinion.

As far as I know a debit card can not be used in this case. . But I'm not very sure mate.
