Same here, just adding to this thread hoping they’ll fix this. Is this happening only in India or anywhere outside usa?

Ya, I am facing the same problem. Unable to subscribe to GPT-4 using Indian Credit Cards.

It is because of RBI new e mandate policy
RBI Guidelines for Processing International Auto-Debit on Cards
google workspace discontinued in India after this rbi regulation.
The new RBI guidelines are applicable for international recurring expenses as well.

As per its mandate, the processing of recurring international transactions with cards/prepaid payment instruments that are not in sync with the new RBI guidelines will be discontinued.

Payment gateways and lenders must comply with these RBI guidelines for domestic and foreign transactions.

Same issue with me. I’ve used Visa (two) and Mastercard but all 3 got declined. Tried last week with all 3 and today with Visa. Is there any resolution yet?

I have been trying since the day chatgpt plus option appeared in my login. All credit cards are declined and have contacted with the bank and they seem to have no history of any such transactions with OpenAI.The problem seem to be on OpenAI side.I have sent mails to support@openai.com and there is no response.

I know guys must be hard at work with all the new releases but its a humble request to not deprive us of the chatgpt pleasure we are eagerly waiting to enjoy. Hoping for some immediate resolution. Thanks

I have tried with 4 different credit cards and 2 debit cards from multiple banks. I am not sure why this isn’t being taken up proactively.
