See the thread above for your answer. Same thing happened to me and I spent some time figuring out what the real problem was.

Thanks,
Ben

No, through the market you use google checkout. You can check through your computer to try to fix it. easier than on the phone. google.com/checkout

When I contacted the author of the small app I was wanting, he was very helpful. He indicated that I should download the "lite" version of his applicatioin and then use my PayPal account to send him the money (which I did) and he immediately emailed me back with a registration number to use when accessing the settings for that application. Worked like a charm.

Granted, there might be some apps where the author does not build in the ability to type in a registration key after downloading the "lite" version. Because I've not run up against that yet, I don't have any input for you in that case.

Thanks,
Ben

Edit

It looks like it might be a problem with buying something in EUROS

Server Error/Invalid Card - Android Market Help

but on a side note who they hell does google think they are not offering a phone number or chat for support. It is not right in my opinion.

You have to call Amex and let them know you are making purchases abroad. I use Amex on google checkout with zero problems.
