You should read 限りなく透明に近いブルー, it's about that beautiful american culture in Japan

>>212142174 (OP)
not our fault that you havent called the customer support of your credit card company. the tickets aren't for free.

>>212142695
I DID
they obviously couldn't help me because they have no idea what deutschebahn even IS, there was no attempt of withdrawal or anything of that kind

>problems with buying tickets in Japan
:O

>>212142756
sounds like you made a mistake then

>>212142842
sorry! but it might be true.
i also wanted to by something from murrica and i just cant. they accept everything and then after 2-3 hours they just decline my order and tell me that my payment was declined. i have no clue why that happens. its not our fault that this shit happens.

>>212142756
sounds like you're trying to cheat the German government for its due taxes.
that CANNOT be. it is illegal. you CANNOT steal the ticket. foreigners try to do that all the time. I know I am privileged as a German, and Norway is a far away place. But you NEED to pay. that is why we made the tickets online. foreigners usually DID NOT pay.

>>212142971
>by
buy

>>212143036
please raise the limit of your credit card that you may pay for the 58€ for the ticket!

>>212142971
I was there last year and had different DB problems, it's the app NOT ME
>>212143036
I'm NOT trying to cheat the german government out of their taxes or to fare evade I am a nice guy just trying to buy a ticket

This is a humiliation ritual that has been imposed on Germany by anglo-francoids since Hitler.

I think foreigners should be forbidden from public transportation. Doing this via DB app is based.

>>212143217
>>212143247
take your meds

>>212143177
the db-app? i used it a few years back (i have a car now) and it worked fine for me. i'm not trying to anger you, but it really sounds like a problem with your credit card. is it a debit card?

>>212143288
Yeah, I'll probably just buy the physical card (someone told me it was still possible) when I land or I'll get by with just single tickets you can buy at the terminal

>>212143413
according to the db-site you can buy it in a "DB Reisezentrum":
https://www.bahn.de/faq/pk/angebot/regionale-angebote/deutschland-ticket/kauf

It also says that you can't buy it from a ticket machine.

>Norwegian mindset in the nutshell
>be geolocked from purchasing a ticket for germany from a third world shithole
>try to purchase it 20 times in a row like a pajeet monkey

>>212143413
oh and have you seen that it says "monthly"?! its a subscription, so take care!

>>212143608
Thanks, yeah I tried buying it both the mobile app and on my pc, reisezentrum and db navigator, someone told me I should try just avoiding DB system all together and buy it from one of the city-websites I'll try doing that
(this one for example is for Hamburg, but should work everywhere regardless)

>>212143708
It's not geolocked, retard, I bought it before
Am I to blame for your overengineered retarded app?
>>212143734
I know
Why do germans assume all other people are retards?

>>212143857
>Am I to blame for your overengineered retarded app?
yeah it took me a 10 second google search.

>>212143857
>I know
good!
>Why do germans assume all other people are retards?
i didn't know it and i just wanted to be helpful.

I know now why your creditcard doesn't work:
https://www.bahn.de/service/informationen-buchung/zahlung?dbkanal_007=zahlungsarten-kreditkarte
>Der Sitz Ihrer angegebenen Bank muss im SEPA-Raum sein
Your specified bank must be in the SEPA area. looks like norway isn't in the sepa area:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europ%C3%A4ischer_Zahlungsraum

You should start thinking more like a brown person and forcefully break onto the train without paying. tf Gunther gonna do?

>>212143814
i hope that works for you. best of luck and have a nice stay!

>>212143247
How's your transition going on?

>>212144002
>looks like norway isn't in the sepa area
But it is:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europ%C3%A4ische_Freihandelsassoziation

>>212142174 (OP)
There's little to see in Germany: Rhine cruise ships, the meme romantic road on the borders of the two southern states, and the Berlin museum island.
Foreigner that claim to like Germany are brown naziboo larpers that don't even bother (or can't afford) to go there. They don't have much tourism. There are some business conferences in Frankfurt but it's in the same conference centres with a ring of business hotels nearby.
What I mean is that it's expected that nothing is set up for non residents.

>>212144204
thats freihandel not sepa. i think its something different.

>>212144002
>i didn't know it and i just wanted to be helpful.
I apologize, it was disrespectful of me, I was just angry
>>212144002
>I know now why your creditcard doesn't work:
My bank does support SEPA, but still thank you for taking your time to google this stuff
>>212144046
Thank you
>>212144216
It's actually pretty nice, I'm going to visit the alps and southern germany around Obersee

>>212144237
>Teilnehmerländer des Europäischen Zahlungsraumes sind:

>>212144267
>I apologize, it was disrespectful of me, I was just angry
no problem. we also teased you a little, so its understandable.

>My bank does support SEPA, but still thank you for taking your time to google this stuff
no problem. then i don't know what could be the problem. just try to buy it from the hvv.

>>212144312
hmm, keine ahnung. bin da ja auch nicht wirklich experte, aber das hätte es eben sein können.

>>212142174 (OP)
why are norwegians like this? just take the train trip withou ticket. cuck

Buying tickets form Norway?

We don’t do that IN GERMANY
