Terrible Payment System

[Lerris]

This issue needs to be resolved much sooner than that. Playonline billing is getting transferred to Square-Enix accounts, which means I may cancel my FFXI subscription due to crappy payment options.

Given that FFXI is widely perceived as the Square Enix cash-cow these days, one would question why they are making billing any more complicated for it. Moving the billing system to one of a more poorly received game does not sound like a way to keep subscribers smiling, especially when said subscribers have made a conscious decision to not move over to playing FFXIV instead of XI for whatever reason(s) they deem most applicable to them.

wow... if that is true all the NA guys that I know that been playing FFXI with me on JP release with JP FFXI account wont be able to play after that SE account transition... wow that will suck big big big time for all of them since US credit cards work on Playonline but not on JP Square Enix account system. (they don't accept foreign cards)
