Crysta is sadly not available for everyone.
I want to see Paypal for everyone.
Or at least Crysta for everyone (since you can buy Crysta using Paypal)

SE can't do that, it's a legal issue. Many countries don't allow crysta. If they did, SE would offer it there as well.

[RAIST]

or in some cases, the country allows it, but requires you to treat virtual property like real property. Meaning, you have to issue refunds and what not--players in those areas have a legal right to virtual property they pay directly for (like Crysta), and SE can't arbitrarily take it a way without fair compensation like their ToS clearly states they can (thay can snatch it after your account goes idle for 1 year, immediately if you get dropped for violation, or they can just kill the system any time they want and don't have to refund a dime). So.... SE is simply not offering it to those areas.

I've been playing ffxi since ps2 release in America. thats what 7 years or something like that? my payments been fine till now. For some reason I get that my bill has not been paid. so I do the transfer for the new payandclick thing i pay off my fee, it was the last bit of my money on I had on my debit card till i get paid. I try and reactivate my account and it says I dont have enough money on my card. WTF! every time that I paid a unpaid balance I was still able to reactivate my char for the next month..... I'm at the end of my rope with SE on this one. I'm tired of them spiting in my face over crap like this. I was going to keep playing this game till its final days but F it! Think I'll just hold out till Diablo 3 or something. Its sad how this had to go down. Doubt I'll ever play another SE MMO or care to play another SE game... TBH most SE games are going down the drain and are complete garbage these days. I know SE prolly won't look at this post or even this thread. Its a sad shame they say they want to Liston to the community but pretty much just ignore us.

Does anyone know, if the cutoff for gamers who pay via direct payment was extended to October/November or is that still in place for the end of this month? I'd like to know whether I have to put money into my account to cover this or try to get a friend with a credit card to help out.

The extension is until mid-fall. I would have to assume that your current payment method will be fine.

Keeps fingers crossed.

it's no big deal to me but it costs me 13.08 a month now to play if I pay through click and buy.

[Luso]

They charged me 25 cents more as a Foreign Transaction fee. So I end up paying $13.20 each month, apparently.

20 cents isn't a lot, but it will add up, and I remember reading that if I payed for XI through ClickandBuy and did nothing else with the ClickandBuy account (such as depositing a balance, etc), I shouldn't incur any extra fees. I wonder why I got charged extra, then. =(

Even though they extended the billing issues, your account has been cut off unless you have switched to Crysta/ClickandBuy.

I just hope I still get the Chocobo Wand after all that I put up with last night. XD Would have had it done before midnight but...
