It's really annoying how Steam blocks you from using your UK registered card, even on a UK Steam account.

Is there any way I can get my router to hide the IP location so Steam will accept my UK visa card? (I don't have a Korean credit card and don't want one.)

The reason I'm asking is because OFP Dragon Rising is looking really good and I want to be able to get it on Steam on the 8th October.

haha, trying to buy L4D2? I pre-ordered a few days ago. Good stuff. I used my Korean debit card from Woori.

Nah paypal doesn't work either mate because it's a UK paypal account. I think I'll just use my friend's card.
