Billing issues for areas not covered by ClickandBuy or Crysta

[katz]

Still being real here, there are a lot of players out there who don't strictly adhere to the US/UK/JP areas and only use those SKUs to play the game because their own countries do not have a specific version, like Australia. Legally and officially SE never provided for them in the first place, but players from these other countries still found ways to play using their own time and money. These players are still a large chunk of the playerbase, and if they can't play anymore, they'll be taking their money with them. I assume Square likes money, so even though these players don't fit into a specific region, Square is screwing themselves out of money in the process.

Im getting the distinct impression SE dont like money. First the give ffxiv free, now they are not allowing payments to them......

beginning to wonder if SE isn't trying to "cook the books" so they can qualify for some financial assistance of some sort.

Hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but it is just hard to rationalize going this route with all the recent issues with C&B and other services clearly documented not only on the internet, but within C&B's own support portal...and now those same issues are cropping up for FFXI as well.
