Thanks in advance for the help,

What exactly is the problem you encounter?

I've had problems with one of my credit cards at either Air Asia or Nok Air's site - I blame bad programmers. I think when my CC number got hashed (kinda like encrypted) to be sent over the wires, the hash/encrypted data got stuck at one of the pages and basically blew it up - it caused some application error message. The payment was processed after I used another CC. I consistently got that error with that one credit card (I was testing to see if they fixed their problem).

BTW, it was with Canadian and Thai credit cards. The Canadian cards worked last year (July) when I last flew with them... I don't bother with LCC much anymore, though.
