PS Store - Alternative Funding

[AlexOC]

This is where i am at.

I need to buy the new Killzone maps, but my VISA account has no money in, I only have £6.99 (maps at £5) in paypal which will take ages to transfer to bank.

Is there anyway i can buy something of PS Store, which other ways can you fund it?

Could always beg for a friend to do a transfer to your account?

I only know of using cards, are you near a PS3 or would you like me to have look on mine? :P I've got some updates to do anyway so wouldn't mind :)

Have a look for what?

And can a friend download the maps then send them, ps3 to ps3?

Have a look and see if there alternative ways.

Anyway, mine just says add a Credit Card which I'm guessing is the only way to buy stuff from the store. I'm not sure if you can transfer maps from PS3 to PS3, it doesn't sound like something Sony would allow.

So the way to do it is, change my password, allow friend access to my account, add card details, buy it, delete card details, log out, change password back and pay them via paypal?

No I mean a friend/family member transfers money to your bank account, via a bank transfer (internet, in the bank, by phone) if their account allows it :)

Hence why I got a PayPal card, but they cost £5 and take a fortnight to get there.
