Wow you actually got somewhere! I crashed at verifying credit card.

Since they are Europe-based they require "secure 3d". My Amex with $65,000 limit that I use personally and for business works flawlessly in USA and outside for last 7 years. But not with those guys.

After back and forth battle with their ticketing system, I was advised by engineer to "finally get a secure 3d card". :) Scaleway should send said engineer for a trip to USA to see we don't use much of Secure 3d here. In fact, my personal account rep said Amex will never implement it because it only adds unnecessary layer and actually doesn't make things safer.

Until Scaleway fix their broken payment system, I will stick with DigitalOcean and few other mature and reliable hosting companies, because how the heck am I supposed to trust them with my mission-critical systems, when they cannot even figure their own payment page.
