GamezRanker: It's sadly very easy for the ones controlling the data to use it to either track people, or to hold it over people's heads.....and they can gather it much easier with non-cash payment methods.

GamezRanker: I say we go back to bartering things, if need be. Let's see em' try to ban things like trading say a games magazine for a chicken dinner. :)

jtef: Don't know if you have alredy solved this issue, or just given up on the 10E...
But the way i got arround this was:
-getting a new sim card (about 5 or 7,5E), it helps if you have a cellphone not locked into a carrier;
-making the paysafe account with that number;
-making giberish for names and IDs and adress, use a temp mail service;
-and thats about it,
for about a year i've been doing so, with some other uses i may have spend 10E so far recharging the sim.

This way i haven't given any data to some faceless company,
and don't have to use any banking card either.
As for the diference between Sweden and Portugal, I bet it's because of Chengen and the monetary union
and the safecard company being a UK based one, and the resulting can of worms.
And GOG has very little to do with this mess, even if they could try and help and diversify non banking options,

Cavalary: They used to charge rougly the equivalent of 2 EUR / month out of the credit left unused after 12 months, now it's 6 months...
