That would help, or simply a choice to buy an FFXI Crysta or something that is worth/costs as much as your monthly fee.

I'm more annoyed that I either have to worry about going through crap I haven't had to worry about for the past 7 years or I worry constantly about the shady CnB.

Or we could just have the ability to continue to be directly billed and it all go away!

I do not want to sit there and buy crysta either.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but since I already pay $14.95 a month for FFXI, I'm just gonna buy $30 worth of Crysta every 2 months.

Simple math ftw.

If I lead a project that had so obviously alienated a large portion of our customer base at my job I would certainly expect to be fired for not doing due diligence and seeing what kind of impact it would have. You can't be so grossly negligent and expect to keep your job.

Right, though if you did the "simple math" you'd see that over time you'd be paying more. Oh, and also you have to do that manually.

Or, you know, we could just pay them automatically and directly like we always used to instead of having to either buy their stupid funny money Crysta or go through a 3rd party.

Don't forget that's also 30 days of play time not one month so again, losing....

Wanted to add my voice to the chorus of displeasure with the new payment system.

You're a huge, multinational corporation, and you can't even handle your own payments? I grew up in a small, family business and we were very late to the party, and even we've been accepting credit cards without our customers going through a middle man for over 10 years.

My girlfriend quit FFXI shortly after Treasures of Aht Urghan came out and has since asked me to play World of Warcraft, Lord of the Rings, Aion, Dungeons and Dragons, and Rift with her. She's been rebuffed every single time. Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming out this Christmas season, and she's already asked me once if I'd like to join her. She knows what's going on with the payment headaches and hoops we, as loyal customers, are being asked to jump through. She'll surely ask again. I might not turn her down next time.

From taking 3 years to finish out an expansion we bought in 2007, to offering up a roadmap for the future that lacks in anything new or exciting (Hellooooooo! New jobs or truely new areas, anyone?), to not even being able to process payments properly, to the perception (and it is at the very least a perception, though one SE has done little or nothing to try to dispel) that it favors its Japanese customer base over all others, nothing SE has done in recent memory serves to show that they want to secure my business for the foreseeable future.

Our bluffs are being called.

This is not correct!!! To use Clickandbuy you must have an established bank account. They do not accept Wal-Mart cards or gift cards and you can not use them to setup a Clickandbuy account!!!! SE messed us over again by making us have to setup Clickandbuy account or lose our Final FantasyXI accounts because we can not pay for them anymore because we do not have a bank account!!!

you can buy crysta with game cards, which is still stupid, but at least there's that.
