Re: "they don't do debit?"  I'm not 100% sure, I just have not been able to get them to accept my debit card, and it's VISA debit, too. Always "Your card issuer cannot authenticate this card."

I would ask your bank

I and a couple others tweeted at him/replied on his tweets about more love for the 3090 step up which is barely moving and asked when we would see more movement, but I didn't see any replies as of Sunday.

He's responded a few times today to Step-Up questions. Says this week's drop will be significantly larger than last week. 

Would be cool, I'm not holding my breath though.

So I had tried calling my bank before even attempting the first transaction.  They said that amount would be no problem so that's when I attempted to buy.  Today I've been calling around again and it appears that:
- EVGA can see the attempts, but there is no error code, so they suggested I contact my bank again.
- My bank... does not even receive the transactions in the first place.  I verified this between talking with support and/while checking my account myself, and there's nothing.  I can, however, use my card for seemingly anything else without any issues whatsoever and they will go through and show up on my statement.  So support sent me to card security to see if a block from VISA might be occurring.
- Card security sees/claims VISA themselves are blocking any attempts to make this payment in particular, and nothing else as evidenced by all my other purchases going through without issue and despite literally larger purchases being made with no issue nor complaint.  Good job, VISA!  You want a cupcake?  So they proceeded to clear those out (hopefully) and have told me to attempt again soon.  If this does not work, I guess I know who to call.  If *that* doesn't work, I have no idea.
 
edit: oh snap, "Your payment was submitted successfully!"

Well boys and girls let us hope that this week we see some significant movement on this list. Don’t forget to go to Twitter and tag Jacob keep it fresh in their minds. Not saying that it’s not but in my experience the squeaky wheel gets the grease always. We do not want to be forgotten about while the people that are part of the normal queue that did not do step up and get their cards filled before us. Best of luck everyone getting your cards this week.

I saw late Friday night that a bunch of people were on twitter thanking him for the late Friday 3090 ftw ultra emails to purchase them (saw at least 5-10 people tweeting about it), meanwhile no reported step up emails on Friday it seems :/
 
I and a couple others tweeted at him/replied on his tweets about more love for the 3090 step up which is barely moving and asked when we would see more movement, but I didn't see any replies as of Sunday.

Yeah I Tweet at Jacob most days he always ignores mine. Makes me questions if step up is getting much love at all.

Yup EVGA not working on Step up at all really. It is clear they are focused on the notification queue. They already got our money so no motivation to help out Step-up.

I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt this week. If they come through with 10 - 20 3090s for Step-Up with more promised next week, I'd be cool with it. They just need to start with predictable drops each week. 
 
At that rate, they could easily clear out existing 3090 Step-Ups before CP 2077 hits. Should have been sooner but think that will make most people happy. Now the 3080 list on the other hand... oof.

They just need to communicate that to us in my opinion. I personally have never been this excited to give away $1,700. So more communication on their part would be nice.

Has anyone gotten any step up emails today? Jacob said a bunch of 3090s were going out today. Not sure if that includes step up.

Not sure about that. But they received my 2080 Ti this morning so I'm curious to see what the turn around time is going to be for them to ship my 3090 out. I was lucky enough to get step 2-5 last week.

Step 2 email at 11:18am PST, orginally at 9/24 9:09am PST

Nice! I'm 9:16am. Sooo close lol.

Well at least they filled two step up, still looks like notification queue is getting product like candy.

10/9/2020 3:30 pm PST 3090 step-up

Update to step 3 at 8:32pm EST, Step 4 at 8:38 after processing payment.
