Halifax, Bank of Scotland still to accommodate Blizzard payments

After hearing the news yesterday about Halifax not accepting payments from World of Warcraft subscribers due to fraudulent accounts, some of you might be thinking to switch their accounts to a different bank.

However, Halifax made sure that this not entirely necessary. Know more about this after the jump!

Here’s a little follow up to our report earlier that the UK bank Halifax is refusing to accept subscription payments for Blizzard‘s MMORPG World of Warcraft.

This is due to the alleged fraudulent credit cards used during transactions. Blizzard has now confirmed that the reports were true but clarified that Halifax is not totally closing their doors to Blizzard costumers. Halifax attested to this by saying:

If a customer does want to subscribe to a game site operated by Blizzard, using a Halifax or Bank of Scotland credit card, we can arrange for the payments to be processed for them if they contact us.

While this move is an entirely business one for Halifax, we can’t help but think about the welfare of those who are using good and honest Halifax credit cards to pay for World of Warcraft subscriptions.
