How come it's already going to pay to play in November when they haven't even remedied the issue about click and buy and never even commented with it on this forum even though they know it's a problem because of the people using it for 11?
Unless this is just speculation and not fact.
Uhmmmm

10-15-2011, 02:07 AMJennestiaConsidering both FFXI and XIV uses SE accounts it clearly goes for everyone. It's also stated here:Quote:

So clearly when it's time they'll announce it. -
10-15-2011, 02:09 AMRannieWell there are a lot of countries banks that refuse to do business with click and buy because they're not a reliable company... uhmmm we had a whole thread on it here in the general area called click and buy also a lot of the FFXI members were having issues with it as well so it's on their forum too if you'll give me a second i'll post the link for ya from our forum on the threadQuote:

Click and Buy isn't the only payment option (for NA and JP anyway).

I'm annoyed that I'll have to cancel my card on C&B, then close C&B account then sign up for new payment option. =/

Personal opinion:
Never had a problem with Click and Buy (JUST DON'T HAVE MONEY LAYING IN THE C&B ACCOUNT AND THEY WON'T CHARGE YOU) Square will automatically pull from your bank account through click and buy when it comes time for payment. But if you put money in the account yourself and let it sit there....they are going to charge you to keep it there, that is why people don't like click and buy; its because they don't understand how it works for the most part.
Albeit I do agree they do seem like a shady version of PayPal because they don't clearly explain the above and want you to screw up and get charged out of the arse by them. Also it's not that some banks refuse business with them its just that they lack some of the mainstream precautionary methods (they have their own) and some banks don't accept that; also I believe but I'm not 100% certain that they don't accept any and all types of money so your bank might not be acceptable with them from that.
Personally I have a Wachovia/Wells Fargo account and its worked/s just fine on XI, not a problem and no hidden fees to date because I use the system correctly. -

thought i wouldn't use it as a reason to quit the game I'm really hoping they're figure something else out and I hope you don't quit the game just because of the payment system. -
10-15-2011, 02:20 AMEekikiThis is what I did, and it worked okay. I have heard stories about C&B double-charging people, so you may not be safe even if you keep nothing in your C&B account.Quote:

Hey It's no problem Omega I'm honestly glad you've had no issues with the click and buy system. (and I'm not being sarcastic or mean in anyway) like I said I know not everyone likes it and se even said for 11 they would look into something else because of those players complaining about it. ^_^

I'm not saying I've had any problems with them, but they don't have a great reputation.

Oh yeah don't get me wrong I would love to have additional payment options other than listed few; the more payment options you have the more likely you are to have willingly paying players imo. And I'm in no way a devout for Click and Buy I only used it since it became part of XI/XIV's payment system. So I guess I would be a noob to the company, maybe I've been just lucky. But maybe the stories are merely made up (I'm not discrediting anyone's experience right here).
I just merely want to educate some that might be on the fence with it, and those are my opinions on the matter and my personal reasoning why I haven't had any problems and why I think some people might have had problems with the company.
Coming from a family who had one of the largest construction companies in South Carolina the BBB is a joke (I would just like to point that out) It really depends on how much you pay them [the BBB]. So honestly I would never use that as a creditable source, even more so than the alleged credibility of Click and Buy. -

I may or may not cancel my click and buy payment method and switch to crysta. How much crysta is it per month? I mean like $12.99 is approx 1300 crysta a month right? Seems odd that they then only sell crysta in multiple of 1000 XD you'd have to do seperate transactions until they get it where you can just flat buy 'x amount' of crysta...

I agree Omega at my job ( I do customer service for Cuisinart) my customers always complain about how they're going to the BBB and most of the time I'm thinking... ok good for you go ahead they're not even a part of it and who knows if the stories are made up I for one know that when it comes to my money I'd never joke about it or even lie about it but *shrugs* everyone is different
