PSA: Banks. Also, wake up UK! Shenmue 3 = £19 if pledge now!

Saw someone mention it on the Gaf and seemed like a good shout to peeps on here.

To avoid hassle with fraud protection/paperwork etc. it may be wise for people to notify their bank that there will be a large amount of money heading out to a foreign (in some cases) company in a weeks time, since we don't have a Shenmue III Kickstarter every month do we?

Also, I was honestly n00bish about the exchange rate. I think we can point this out to other UK gamers. Even though it clearly says "dollars" its been like "pounds" in my head all this time.

Right now:

£18 = Digital (EIGHTEEN QUID)
£38.45 = Physical (GREAT value)
£102.51 = Bonus Pack Tier <--my current pledge
£112.16 = Art Book Tier

I think we need to put the word out about this to British friends!

You wont get this value on release!

A tenner for an official art book! I'm upping my pledge right now!

Good call man

[Reprise]

I raised this concern here a few weeks back and it's a good call. People should make their bank aware so that it doesn't get blocked and marked as a suspicious transaction. Particularly those pledging more than a few hundred dollars and definitely those reaching the thousands. Especially if you're outside the US.

Edit: This link might be useful. It explains what happens if your payment is blocked and how to correct it: https://forum.revolution.co.uk/topic/398/lofi/
