How do you pay for it? If I try to use a visa cc for an acct outside the US they demand I have a bank acct in that country and verify a deposit AMT.

I had one in Argentina for ages, until they pulled this trick

I just used my credit card. Worked fine. Checked the statement and I was charged $2.60.

Tried Ukraine, VPN was up, local address there, it just blocked me from paying with my US VISA card :/
