Why was Click N Buy Added again

[Juri_Licious]

I'm a noob, and i'd like to know.

Because instead of paying SE directly, they thought it would be better to use real money to pay a 3rd party to buy fake currency to pay SE.

[Zatias]

To kick all the non-Japanese off the game.

SE are racists!

I guess they just picked it cause they gave them the best deal, was done as quickly and with as little thought as possible. They made sure to give JP playerbase the best options they could of course. When FFXIV was getting a bad reception they blamed the western players for it which showed how they felt about non-jp players as a company. Maybe these horrible payment options are kind of a punishment for what they see as western players ruining the rep of FFXIV.

the REAL reason, is they are phasing out playonline. This means they are getting rid of the use of it. Playonline will only be used as a launcher by september. SE choose C&B through a corprate decision. Playonline was a third party way for the non japanese to pay for ffxiv. Since japanese use different currency we really can not pay them directly due to the exchange rate, and possibly large fees to switch our currency into theirs. This is why japanese can pay SE directly. And in be for you name companies like blizzard, most mmo are seperated by region. And We pay the division of said company. Like european players pay blizzards european division ect. What you guys should understand, is SE did not forsee that we the players would have issues. Our issues are out of the hands of SE and it is the issue of your bank or credit union or credit card company verses click and buy. As well as click and buy verses your region. SE did inform the community reps that they are looking into better options.

SE said they used click and buy because they wanted an external company with higher security to hold our financial infomation as it's more secure.

The real reason they want another company to hold our financial infomation is because they don't want to be held responsible if it's hacked and our financial infomation is taken.

Blame PSN.

Once the transfer is done our POL friendlist will be removed.

[Nianny]

I'm a bit confused with the friend list thing... they're actually removing the friend list? ; ;

[Aver]

It's just friends list plus, from what I've surmised.

Se's usual vague wording is vague.
