in light of all the payment raging, (( must read ))

[Malacite]

and i just stated that there is infact a credit card option. >.> It is on their web site. Click and buy is just the direct way to buy crysta other the going through ultimate pay.

ALSO any and all time cards are not a mnth to mnth thing. You get incraments of several months. Similar with points. There is incrments of pay. You can't just simply buy 13.95. Even sony and 360 have cards that equal only $5 $10 $20

Just gotta suck it up, that is how those cards and point system work.
Just go to SE site and set up your credit card.

Except had you actually bothered to try the direct payment option, you would have found that Click&Buy is the only method available to us. The JP by stark contrast, can still register their cards directly with SE and thus pay SE directly.


You might want to actually research things before starting a losing argument like this, lest you look like a jackass.

actually I did. To me click and buy is do different then paypal. I just didn;t see the logo cuz I set my ffxiv account on my ps3 for that I'm sorry abouty the mistake. but still no need to disrespect me for trying to help you guys. I'm not gonna be nice, if all i see is just blind rage over change.

Thing is, you weren't nice to begin with. You were all like "omg learn2read&research guys" and then made a claim that is 100% false because you yourself didn't read and research. And you even posted it in several threads. Don't be surprised that you are being flamed for it.

Also, noodles355 makes a VERY good point.

I told you why I wasn't nice. I had to see all this rage for a second time. And my mistake was the click and buy logo didn't show up on my ps3. Simple put in all RAGING is not the best way to handle this. Be calm cool and collected. Try to contact SE or the community reps to find out what you can do. Learn about the options you can do.

I;m not against them adding more options. I am against mindless rage, of adults acting like teenagers.
There is no reason, excuse to mindlessly rage over something like this. I personally always had an issue paying for this game till my boyfriend steped in and payed for my game. You guys are being insultive to anyone who remotely tried to help you think a bit clearer. Ypu guys are acting like SE is just out after your money and don;t care if they screw you over. That is "tin foil hat" thinking.

know your options, do research. (yes I did do it also and just never fixed my op, but honestly why should i after reading the rude replies I got and everyone is getting trying to help you guys.)

do not insulot others for trying to help. If you can't play after this change I do have sympathy for you. I was in a similar boat and wasn't very happy.

I'm happy playonline is getting phased out. I hate the fees that came along with trying to pay SE. like 1.00 to reactivate your account if they screwed up the payment or my bank screwed up the payment or the glitch that cased this fee to happen twice.

Every mnth for 6 mnths in my second year of playing i had to deal with reactivating my account. I didn't rage, I just sekked for help. And my b/f offered to help me out.

Seriously guys, rage moar?

Sorry for using internet speack but it is just a video game. If you do not like the new billing practices. Then simply do not play.

Sorry for the wrong info on my part, but honestly THE MAIN POINT was saying if you guys do some research, there are ways to pay for the game other then click and buy.

Crysta in a nutshell will be my payment. And I know how it works. Simply do this option instead of click and buy.

So yes you guys are just fearing change instead of looking into things. Sometimes you do not get what you want in life.

I will break down how crysta works, which is by far the safest option. Or do you not remember that SE was hacked twice before?

anyway $1= 100 crysta

if your account is say 15.95 a mnth, round this up to 16.00. that means you need at least 1600 crysta. look at the list of cryta amounts and pick the best option for what you want. I would just save up and get a $100 worth. Or simply use your credit card on paypal for the ultimate pay. This put 10,000 cysta on your account. And you will not have to toucvh to for several months. if a flat fee of $100 is simply not for you. just take your account fee round it to the nearest dollor then double or triple it. and pay two to three mnths in advance. It is very easy.

Also contact SE about your region. Stating click and buy don't work for you. Also do not blame se because of the country you live in. That is your regions fault for not hosting the game in the first place.
Simple put instead of raging just use the option you can and ask questions to the dev team.

No need for all this imaturaty over a video game. I only wanted to help you guys out. since there is no need for it.
Do not fault me for trying.

actually I did. To me click and buy is do different then paypal. I just didn;t see the logo cuz I set my ffxiv account on my ps3 for that I'm sorry abouty the mistake. but still no need to disrespect me for trying to help you guys.

Apologies for the long quotes, but editing would be doing an injustice to everyone concerned. There it is. It speaks for itself--But I'll add commentary anyway. It's all about the lulz--I'm addicted.

I only wish I had the intellectual simplicity to casually throw away not hours, days, or months, but years of dedication to an endeavor while trivializing my own efforts. I do this all the time. Then again I'm immortal, so time, effort and energy don't mean anything to me, so MMO's are the perfect way to spend eternity. It's a good thing--I'm going after a Mythic.

Rosina, if you're gonna play for SE's team, you need to step up your game. Proofreading helps, as does having one's facts straight before you start a thread. Allow me to demonstrate:

I realize that everyone feels anxious about change, but there's no reason for alarm. Players may still make automatic payments through their credit cards via Clickandbuy. After setting up one's account, there's no more hassle, and players are awarded an in-game item if they register right away! They charge a fee, but it's very small, only 3.7%; only about 50 cents on a basic account. The Chrysta system allows players to pay months in advance if they wish, so they don't have to worry about payments. Chrysta may be purchased through Ultimatepay or Clickandbuy. FFXI customers have more payment options than ever before!

Basically, the first rule of the Square-Enix club is, you do not talk about how some customers can pay directly without going through a 3rd party. The second rule of the Square-Enix Club is...

No really. SE didn't tell this to their NA playerbase; we had to put this together for ourselves.

You feel like you're taking up something unpopular; SE's changes. I admire your courage. I realize you're trying to be informative, and wish to pacify the playerbase's anger. We realize FFXI is not being denied us, there's just new payment options. But we don't find a one of them attractive; we find them dangerous. However much people can be attached to their virtual characters they invested nearly a decade into, they are infinitely more attached to their own bank accounts, and do not give out personal information to every jive talkin' mofo with a net address and purple suit. Mamma didn't raise no fools!
