Cannot subscribe or pay for anything on SWTOR website

Well, i tried to buy cartel coins on http://www.swtor.com/buy and had a strange experience.

Whenever i click on a "Buy" button (no matter if i try to buy coins or make a subscription, all buttons show the same result) the page simply reloads and nothing else happens, i guess normally i would see a page with payment options, but this page never appears. This makes it impossible to buy anything on that page.

I tried Chrome, Firefox, Opera and even the experimental Opera Neon browser, they all show the same issue.

Buying coins ingame is not an option for me, because i don't have a credit card, only PayPal (like the majority of european players).

    Not sure can do much on the forums, can only suggest to see if it still occurs after the next backend maintenance

    Pretty sure Paypal is valid except for Russia and Brazil

    Might be something to do with your internet security settings. Clicking "buy" takes you to a HTTPS address, so if something's iffy with your security, the browser likely won't let you go there. 

    In case it is, you can try tethering or hotspotting from your phone using data and trying again. Or even just trying directly from your phone. If it works, it's time to review how your home internet is set up.

    HTTPS can't be the problem, the website of the bank where i have my bank-account is https and even google.de is https. I have more problems reaching sites which are NOT https (chrome and my security suite ask me both in that case if i am sure that i want to visit such a insecure site xD).

    Ok, i tried again to buy coins and suddenly only 1 button was not functioning.

    Its still impossible to buy coins for only $4,99, but you can buy coins for $9,99 or you can pay for a subscription.

    I have no clue why this suddenly works, i didn't change anything in my end.
