Last time I bought premium for Nexus mods was in March 2025, since then a lot has changed with Paddle, the vendor required for processing premium payments. Paddle is banned by my bank due to its role in "Unfair Payment-Processing Practices and Facilitation of Deceptive Tech-Support Schemes"

Under the settlement filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Paddle is:

• Permanently banned from processing payments for tech-support companies engaged in telemarketing or using pop-up security messages;
• Prohibited from helping deceptive merchants or attempting to circumvent fraud monitoring systems;
• Required to implement robust merchant screening, monitor transactions, and report suspicious activity to payment-service providers;
• Required to obtain consumers’ express informed consent for subscriptions and provide a simple cancellation process.

So unless these dudes find another vendor to do business with, I can't buy the premium membership. Anyone else run into this problem? I can't be the only one dude.
