To my 6 months I payed for when this game first came out? It says my next billing date is Jan 6th. How is that right? It should be July 6th.
Anyone else having this issue? Really feels like I'm being scammed.

Everyones next billing date is Jan 6th, whether you are paying month to month or 180days.
No one has been charged yet, Jan 6th is the end of the free period.
Because Jan 6th is the next date at which fees are due. When Jan 6th hits, since your fee has already been paid then you won't be out anything. Same for Feb 6th, Mar 6th, Apr 6th, May 6th, and Jun 6th until July 6th at which you'll be out of "pre-paid" and you have to load it with more money
Alright, I hope thats the case. Nothing on that payment page indicates that I have 6months payed for so I'm a bit concerned. Thanks for the replies.
They haven't charged yet. And if you haven't done the final steps they just recently posted to continue to play, you will no longer be able to play until you do so. If you don't plan on paying, then you don't have to do anything.
When looking at your SE management account in the 'Options List' for XIV, if your character status still says 'Free Trial Period', then once Jan 6th hits, you no longer play.
If you want to continue playing, pick your payment options, then check mark your character(s) and select 'Reactivate'. Only when you do this, you will actually be charged when the billing period begins.

Thank you for that explanation. The process is a little convoluted.
I should have also mentioned....
Once you complete the final step to continue playing after billing starts, your character status in your management account will change to "Continuous". If it says that, you will be charged and are set to keep playing.
One Question: How do you have payed for 6 months?
Theres only one way u already payed something yet and thats crysta. And those crysta are still on your account then.
Click on the instructions they included. Not only is it spelled out clearly on how to do everything but they also have pictures. Its so easy a caveman could do it
How did you pay for 6 months already? Did you purchase Crysta? If so, it should reflect on your Crysta balance.

As I said detailed instructions for everything. It was a big link on the payment update screen and its on the main page of lodestone.
They did read his first post. No one actually paid anything in subscription fees since they never ended the trial period. As others said, he's probably in the same boat I am, where I purchased enough Crysta to play for a few months. So while I did technically have money taken out of my bank account to play, it's just been sitting in my SE account in Crysta form waiting for the day the trial ended.
Just to clarify I did the stupid Click-and-Buy method and paid for 6months.
But they shouldn't have ACTUALLY charged you when you set up those 6 months (Click and Buy way). I did it too and I was never charged since they started the free trial extension right away and I started right when CE came out. Just because you set it up doesn't mean it went through, Click and Buy wise anyway. If you did the Crysta way, then all the Crysta you've purchased should still be in your SE management account.
Yea click and buy is not the most legit company...
I think Click and Buy instantly charges you $1 or something when you set it up to make sure it goes through and is a legit payment method then they instantly reimburse you or something like that.
Last year my credit card was locked when Click-and-Buy charged me the $1 but just one phone call cleared that right up. I was never billed a penny in subscription fees and the $1 was returned.
No one should have been actually billed anything yet. The only thing you could have bought at this point is the actual game itself and Crysta.
I do agree that the whole thing might be a little confusing.
I forgot about the whole $1.00 thing. It was so long ago!
