Captain sim sale is on

Don't know if USA credit cards are the problem. Probably just first time 2checkout customers.

Thought I would try downloading manuals, but it won't let me. Requires entering a security code ( keyin of image ), captsim's order number, and my email. Since I have only a 2checkout order number and no captainsim order number I get rejected. At the welcome guest checkin, I am faced with having to give the same info and can't get in. What the hey is up? Caught in a catch-22. :banghead:

Pretty frustrated at this point.
 
Yeah, I did it first time, too, first time I ever used a credit card to be exact... Worked great, just don´t have time for flying right now...
 
Heres a shot of the C-130 Just be glad your getting it cheap - I paid full price a few weeks ago :banghead:
 
No problems here with PayPal. Got my 757 download link within minutes per mail. Considering the C-130 for FSX pro, too!

Jim I am not sure if this will Help, but I read all the details on the purchase page, if you are a first time customer you will get the delays for the Fraud Checks, unless you use one of the "Verified" Card Processes. If you noticed the "Verified by Visa (that is what I used) your card is verified and it does not go through the 2checkout fraud check.

I know it is a bit of extra hassle but being an eCommerce specialist I have to say the CS Online store is well set-up and I give them credit for that. I think the extra security is well worth it with the amount of fraud that is happening.
 
Never been a huge C-130 fan (that's probably about to change :icon_lol:) but could not resist and got the pro pack and also the 727 for £18 and change!
 
Also a happy customer here - paid through PayPal, download link within 10 seconds of purchasing it, downloaded, installed, done.

Tempted to get the XLoad aswell, for the F/A-18D. Can anyone tell me if it has more realistic handling capabilities than the actual Acceleration F/A-18C?

Captain Sim made the F-18 for Accelerator. Same cockpit just a 2 seat D model hornet. I have it , and like it. Adds a bit of flair with having a navigator in the back. ;)
 
Just ordered the C-130 pro pack. Downloading now! WOOO!!! :ernae:

I thought that was the case, but thought I'd read somewhere that they may have tweaked it so it was a little more realistic than the C. Oh well!

Never had problems with Mastercard before. Credit always paid on time by bank.

Interesting that some others are getting theirs via 2checkout. Something must be amiss. I've been asked to wait 24 hrs before complaing to them. The sale will be over and any incentive to order more is now gone. Hopefully my order will be accepted and honored past the sale period.
 
:wavey:


Sweet, getting the C-130 & 757, Bravo to the Captain, good day !! :applause::ernae::applause:.

Cheers :friday:

I would think that since the order was placed and paid for, that it will still be accepted at the sale price. Download links are only good for 72 hours, once activated, so...

My download did stall at 33%, so I cancelled it and restarted, it picked up where it had left off, and finished, no problem. I installed it right away, no problems. Just finished a defrag (My FSX is on "C" drive right now, gonna have to change that.) Now gonna go test fly.

BTW, I used Paypal, (have my CC used as backup there,) and recieved my link on site page immediately. Email with links arrived a few minutes later. At the payment choice page, it does state NOT TO CONTINUE after paying from paypal, as it will AUTOMATICALLY return you to download page, which it did for me. Which, it seems, you cannot do once your 72 hour download link is up. :banghead:
 
Having a blast!!!:applause: I like it when it looks great, you can even serve the spoiled fish to the captains (last pic):d

Hi Jim,

MasterCard has a verification system as well and if you have used it online before it would have bypassed the 2checkout fraud process, it is not a reflection on your credit status, just added protection for you and the vendor. You must verify that it is you entering the card information not just someone with the card in their hand or access to your card number and expiry date. Good idea and better than simple systems that just take the card info, hopefully you get through the process soon and get that ordre number ASAP.
 
Wow, been putting off the C-130 purchase for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time since I figured I couldn't justify the cost over how little I thought I would use it. What a cool addon, lots of detail, works fine on my rig in FSX without having to touch any settings (wouldn't have happened anyway, LOL) and a nice change of pace from the smaller aircraft I normally fly. Just finished a couple of short hops in the Middle east and what a blast.

I know Captian Sims gets blasted quite often, but this is my first purchase from them and so far I have not had any issues and the product is fun to fly!
