    Oh and the post title is:

    Warning PlayNC (CoV,CoH) Will Steal Your Money! ... are they that desperate?

    How is this not transfering your responsibility onto someone else?  You are saying they are at fault and they took your money without it being warranted.

    I don't remember SoE having me click on a payment key to re-activate my account on a free weekend special.  I know, I did the EQ, Planetside, SWG, EQ2, Matrix (I know, I am ashamed of this,,, beta was ok,, high hopes), etc.

    Wow had a free comeback weekend?

    WoW had some trial where you enter your cc and you can play for like 14 days except you cant really use all the chat functions.

    While this is defiantly a case of "Oops, my bad," on the OP, don't you guys think a company can cut a guy some slack when messing up? Especially with subscriptions where we are trusting companies with our CC information?



    Did he come to them? Yes

    Did he hit ever button that says "Yes, you can charge me!"? Yes

    Did he play at a time that wasn't free to begin with? No



    I think this was an opportunity for a company to have made a cool showing of customer support, but instead shows there after the cash. I don't blame them, that’s why they made the game right? Just one more missed opportunity to show that there is just a little more then the money when offering a service.



    I don't think this is a black eye for them, but it could have been a +1 in the cool column.
    THANK YOU!!  a lil friendly service goes along way no?

    Confessions of idiocy are so amusing to read. When you couple it with righteous indignation, it makes me want to get the popcorn.

    I wonder if it ever occurred to the OP to just try logging into the account, like the email suggested you could do?

    I contacted the credit card company and had any further automatic payments halted.
     
    another classic case of "we'll make it look like its your fault because we're a big company and we play fair"



    i feel for you.. eventually we can start our own "got f*cked club"

    You are full of it already dude.  Everyone's account (unless banned) was activated.  Means that you can access the boards for PlayNC, submit trouble tickets, and if you didn't receive the newsletter, they had it here on MMORPG.com, instead you come here trolling about PlayNC stealing your money that you gave em.  Hah!

    Oh and either you are the young one, english is not your first language, or your ability to communicate in english is seriously sucky.  Here's a tip, use what you know, and it's DUE not do.

    Changes not a damn thing. You gave your credit card information to reactivate your account, with the account reactivation clearly indicating you'd be billed.

    How did you expect the results to be different? Are you really such a victim that you can't see your own error and take ownership for it?

    In other words, you've come here as an attention whore to get us all to look at you and laugh at what an idiot you are. Thank you for the entertainment.

    your right i suck at speeeeken eenquish





    if your gonna try and talk sh!t, pick something thats not used by every forum on the net? .. and dont say "sucky" after it.. seriously

    So one day im talking too a buddy and she asks me if i still play cov, naturally i say hell no since even super mario has more variety/replay value then that sh!t but that day i sorta maybe a little missed my brute. So i check the website for new info on their usually over-rated "issues" ya know those "expansions" that introduce maybe 1 or 2 things that keep your interested untill you actually try them? Well anyway, so i see a banner saying something like "Try CoV/CoH FREE till Sunday!" and then i say "heh..why not?"..



    So i sign in my account, check my Play NC account options and i see the Reactivate Button. I click it and it asks me for a credit card. Stupid me figuring this was just procedure incase i wanted too play after sunday when the promotion ends ya know? Since theyve done this before. So i enter it, hop in my old server.. and well ill sum it up...



    1. Looked around (10mins)

    2. Checked out new craft system (5mins)

    3. Disappointed since you get too make "what!?" more enhancements yay!

    4. Went afk and Watched tv (30mins)

    5. Came back and saw a team invite and did a mission (15mins)

    6. Quit the team since they were quiet and boring and went afk again (30mins)

    7. Forgot i left the game on while watching X play, Quit and went back to watch tv



    Now.. after my awsome gaming experience i decided "i dont think i can afford the extra $16 after sunday because this game is overwhelmingly crowded and thiers sooo many players and i just dont think i have the time for al this fun" so i canceled the account and left it at that.



    You would think if you cancel your account before the promo ends you dont get charged right? I mean what the hell does "free play till sunday" mean if you have too pay for that free time right?



    So next day i check my bank account and find a pending debit of $16... right away i say "oh f^ck no" and write support basically telling them i want my $16 back since i did not know i would be charged for my free trial. Ofcourse they respond with their "oh im sorry your card has already been charged and we cant give a refund once time is already added too your account because we just cant jesus doesnt allow it " 



    So this pisses me off even more and i tell them i dont even care about the account and im not going too play it after so just cancel my time and refund my money. Why should it matter if i played in the promo time slot?



    2 days pass..



    Another letter i wrote too them asking why wont they respond? If i had known i would be charged for a free trial i wouldnt have joined.



    1 day passes..



    They tell me, "The newsletter/e-mail and official website describing the promotional weekend event states that your game account was reactivated for you and all that was needed in order to begin/continue game play was to log into your game account" and basically saying their was "login activity so they cannot refund my cash" and ofcourse delightfully remind me i get too play for the rest of the month yay!!



    Now isnt it odd that my account said "reactivate" if it was already activated?

    Isnt it odd that  the "login activity" was in the promotional time slot?

    Isnt odd im getting denied a refund for playing in the free promo time?

    Isnt odd i paid $16 too wander around in tights?



    Looks like they laughed and said "quick umm umm make up a reason why we cant give this dude a refund seriously i need too feed my gerbal tonight!"



    If thats not false advertisement then i dono what is because i never saw sh!t saying "yea just login your account is already activated".. i mean wouldnt they send a email for that? Feels good to vent.. im takin this all the way to the bank and gettin it one way or the other.. a man can do alot with $16.. papa johns pizza!







    -my last response i got from them-

    Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, we will be unable to assist you further with a refund.





    ----------------------Note-----------------------------

    Their was NO fine print saying your account was activated and all that was needed is too just login.

    I did attempt too login the same day before i reactivated my account and guess what? didnt let me.

    I assumed my account needed too be reactivated in order too start my trial.. i knew it was a risk, either that or i wasnt picked.. well even support said my account was picked but i still got charged..

    I didnt get any email, all i saw was one of their banners







    Yes i know its my fault and yea i played mmos that require you to reactivate your account and place your credit card INCASE you want too play when the trial expires.. for you d!pshits who think im saying its all their fault, im not, i know its my fault.. all i wanted was just a refund because i wasnt aware of their terms and didnt recieve any email whatsoever, sh!t happens life goes on "thank you come again"





    Whats even funnier is im getting posts saying "didnt you read the email hahaha learn to read" but if you f^cks would read aswell maybe you would know i didnt get one?
