Petition: clickandbuy the only way no,thanks.

[Phen]

Sorry to lazy out on this but Ive caught a lot of posts of my bank auto-blocks click and buy. Do we have a list of major banks that do this. I think from the business side the loss in billing if some big names show up there is the most convincing way to have them expedite other payment plans.

No Mod is going to post in here without having to close the Thread for obvious reasons. I sincerely hope that for everyone's sake SE IS paying attention. Over 600 posts even if it is a relatively small sampling of the player base warrants a definitive response.

How many players are not going to be able to play at all because payment options aren't available in their countries is as yet unknown. People who have previously been able to pay with Pre-paid debit cards now can't and an overwhelming number of people who refuse to do business with ClickandBuy should have sent up an enormous RED FLAG to SE.

The weekend is over SE, time to get back to work and take care of the mess you have made.

What should really catch SE's attention is the number of first-time posters that apparently sought out the Official Forums solely to express their displeasure at this change.

Alot of players I've talked to don't even know about the change, let alone the shadiness of CnB.

"This month's payments have not yet processed. Please try again next month."

Looks like I don't even get to see the evils of cnb until "next month" if I believe the autoresponse the SE site gave me, though I'm guessing it's just a lockout until POL charges my card.

[sarcasm]This whole cnb stuff sounds awesome. First we had our playonline account and password. Then we had that whole verified by visa account and password crap. Oh yeah, and then the square enix account and password. And now a click and buy account and password. I sure hope they require me to have more accounts and passwords soon, I just can't get enough of them![/sarcasm]

this is complete BS SE, why force us to use a 3rd party to handle monthly payment, now my friend cant even login or pay now, and i fear for myself afetr i transfer over. Why Fix Something that was not broke!?

[Tarumage]

At least it looks like they're taking our feedback to heart.

Why Fix Something that was not broke!?

Concerning my money, I woulld rather not wait for it to break.

Playonline is a decade old system, it can no way in any shape or form be sufficient to keep up with security systems in today and tomorrow's environment.

Also SE's Eidosmontreal website was hacked in March.

Finally a response, thanks SE, just try and be a bit quicker when there is obviously a huge outcry...either way good to hear that you are hearing us
