Why do I need to make purchases twice?

Hello,

thanks for response. Here is the screenshot of the dropdown window that appears when I click on my avatar.

I have the game on my phone, so am I logged into the game? I don't know, I suppose I am.

Regards, James

Mhmm @steelyjoe can you please show a screenshot of what it looks like for you? Are you even logged into the game?

Hello again,

my appreciation for all that have tried to help me with the situation of having to go through the payment procedure twice. The first attempt always failed. Well, here's some good news after an update for my iPhone was activated a couple of days ago the problem no longer exists. Hooray!

Best wishes to all

James

Hello,

Thank you for responding, my profile is not displayed the way yours is and does not display my I.D. The only "King" logo displayed is in the middle of a bar at the top of the page which only leads to games. Clicking on my avatar does not display as yours does. (It looks quite different).

Hi James, I mean this:

hi DieOmimi,

thanks for message. I am still experiencing the same problem. I have tried to find technical identifier (= User-ID) but unable to access in the way you suggest. There isn't a "King" logo above my avatar.

James

@steelyjoe do you still have the problem? The studio has not been able to find a bug so far. We don't know if it's related to your account. Can you please give me your technical identifier (= User-ID) for verification. You can find them at Profil. There is a logo "King" above your avatar. Please double-click on it. A longer sequence of numbers appears. This is your technical identifier. We need these so that your problem can be investigated further.

Thank you very much for your efforts.

Hello @steelyjoe, Since this problem occurs in multiple games on your new iPhone, I will relay it to our Community Manager, who in turn will add it to the list of issues for our development team.

Hi Ina,

I have tried turning my phone off and on again, with no difference. I also have the same purchasing problem with BubbleWitch3 saga,

Hi James,

I haven't found anyone in the community who uses an iPhone similar to you and reports on problems with purchases.

Then I looked on support.apple.com and found only this:

- In some cases, problems with in-app purchases can be resolved when you restart the device.

I'm not sure if that solves your problem.

Do you have the same problems with other apps that you have to try twice for purchases?

Best regards Ina

Hi DieOmimi,

thanks for getting back to me and your help. The operating system is iOS 16.2. iPhone SE (the newest) All my apps are are up to date as is the OS. I found out how to delete the cache without deleting the data. How ever none of this seems to have made any difference. The problem persists with purchases. Cheers James

Hi @steelyjoe welcome to our community at Candy Crush Friends Saga.

Unfortunately, we can't tell you why buying from your provider is so complicated. Tell me what platform you are playing on (Andriod, iOS or Win10 /Win11). Maybe I can find some players to whom this also happens.

Most of the time, it helps to clear the cache to clear previous information in your store (please only clear the cache, not the data of your provider app). You should also check if your apps or operating system needs to be updated. Sometimes there may be a bug in this area that has been fixed in a recent version.

Thank you for playing Candy Crush Friends Saga.
