    Overchargeing your Costumers who pay in €. Would you pay it if....

    ... You were looking at the same fees in the $?


    The EU Community asks for help from the US Community!

    We are Looking at:

    This Site for US:

    http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/envi/charge.html

    And this Site for EU:

    http://www.playonline.com/ff11eu/envi/charge.html

    So 1 $ is treated as 1€

    So now for the maths!

    1 $ is roughtly 0.70 € Cent ~ Rounded

    So where an NA($) Costumer Pays 12.95$ an EU(€) Costumer pays 18,61$

    So we got 5.66$ diffrence !

    Now lets take that for a Year!

    5.66 * 12 = 67.92 ~

    So if you were to pay 67$ MORE per Year would you do that?
    Or would call SE insane?


    Would you pay this considdering someone in another Country gets the same Service WAY Charper?

    Nothing new about Europe > America when it comes to pricing, been like that every day you've played the game so far, nothing new to bitch about here.

    Always wondered why I have to pay more than USA players(dunno compared to JP).
    Conversion must be hard for SE.

    back when i started playing you could choose to pay in $ (EU FF of course, not sure if we could pay in €)
    haven(t change paying since then (yes i still pay in $)
    (my bank charge something like 1€ for out of Eu zone payment, but that is still way cheaper than paying in €..)
    Now i'm forced to change and pay in €.
    that's something new to bitch about.

    Good. America gets screwed over during every maintenance, it's always on our busy hour.. We deserve to pay less.

    /This is a joke, btw..

    Everything is more expensive in europe, what else is new? Stop acting as if it's some kind of conspiracy, or something new. Go on steam- Games that sell for $50 sell for 50 euros even though the euro is more valuable.

    Now i'm forced to change and pay in €.

    Not really, because you were supposed to be paying in euros to begin with. Everyone who imported the game before its EU release should be thankful they got a deal for so long. Not saying it's "fair" or anything, just going by the rules.

    Fact is though, the JP have it worse off, as they pay the highest subscription price...

    On the other hand, they are used paying like 50 dollars per porn game that lasts 8 hours. One usually wonders where they get all their money from. Then again they seem to have unlimited part time jobs if I can believe anime.
