Delayed Live forever
I suspect a bug in the system. They only compare the price with the maximum coverage of the card, without previously convert the amount in Euro. The season package is now 4495 rubel. My card has a limit of 1500 Euro and mathematically 1500 is less than 4495 so the system says "Exceeds amount limit".
I don't think this particular "bug theory" is correct. We bought the 995 roubles / €23 package from KHL.ru, but we definitely have a limit on that card that is much lower than €995.
As a test I've just booked a monthly package for the archive only for 295 rubel, it worked without problems. As an employed European, I'll look more recorded games anyway. So they forced me to buy the cheaper solution.
I hope you won't regret the purchase! I found the "Archive" section extremely disappointing and of bad quality last season. I wanted to use it just like you do, to watch games from earlier in the day in the evening, but the games often were simply not there, not available at all! Say, out of 20 Slovan games, only 10 random games were available in full in the Archive section, and not on the same day they were played...
One can only hope the Archive section will improve this season. As you likely know, some Russian pirate sites now offer full-length KHL replays, too, not just pirated live streams... And if the official solution was so useless, can you blame them?
