If I don't have to mess with any of the payment options when ARR comes out because they just pick up billing where it left off, I would very much be ok with that!
.... Just sayin'

I don't get it, I thought they were moving away from Click and Buy?
Either way, you can pay with Crysta and I guess paypal(?).
I don't see why it matters how terrible Click and Buy is with other options. -

Moving away from Click&Buy could be... contractually problematic. These financial institutions and their look-alikes have a way with binding their clients' souls for an astral era or three.

Eventually they changed it so you didn't need that and he started playing FFXI again but it was a year later. My card didn't have it either but luckly I had a PS2 which let you enter cards that didn't have the security thing they wanted.Quote:

Its not good business practice to not accept a wide variety of credit cards then all of a sudden with like no warning at all say your going to start accepting certain cards with an obscure security feature that many cards don't have is pretty inexcusable.
Then SE went for Crysta + 3rd party payment system, click and buy and playspan, this didn't go over well at all. People complained about this lots, and eventually they added more options, like pay Playspan with your credit card for Crysta.
They are finally at the point now where they just accept credit cards without going through one of their 3rd party payment sites but it took them awhile to get there and it was mainly due to the mass amount of complaining. -

I also had issues with my CC about 3 years ago, after years paying FFXI with the same CC it expired and it was a NIGHTMARE for them to accept my new CC that was essentially the same CC but with a different expiration date. After talking with several employees at the bank and calling my CC company nobody knew what the hell was a "3D Secure" CC. Finally I decided to spend hours talking with one SE agent to another and finally, after at least 20 conversations, I found the only one that knew how to do his job, "Agent Jassi" was his/her name. It took 2 minutes to get my new CC working.
Paying FFXIV has been really easy, I just buy exactly the Crysta I need using PayPal, that way I don't even have to bother with a recurring fee or whatever, I pay what I want when I want and leave 0 crysta in the account. -
