Steam payment HUGE price increase!

[Drakanoth]

So... what about the auto renew option on Steam?

At least in Brazil the values of the auto renew did not change, are we to expect these values to be adjusted? Or we just sit and wait for another 'surprise'?

I have been told that the only reason it hasn't changed yet is because it works like a contract, and they can/may change it every year if they want to. So basically its probably gonna stay that low for a while, then after some time also get adjusted.

I would like also to recommend change Steam recommendation and opinion for the game and spread the word so others will not fall for this like us did. The best we do know is help others by not making our mistake.

I heard something on these lines too, but wanna see a word from a SE representative in advance this time.

As you have pointed out, we recently made adjustments to how prices in Brazilian Real and Russian Rubles are calculated for Steam users. These changes were made to bring prices using these currencies in-line with the global pricing structure based on current exchange rates. In addition, these adjustments mean that prices now accurately reflect the pricing provided on our other official channels and currencies.

"4. BILLING PROCEDURES AND RECURRING TRANSACTIONS
4.1 "...Square Enix may change fee rates at any time in its sole discretion, and will use reasonable efforts to notify you at least 30 days in advance of any changes to any Recurring Fees. All FFXIV Subscription Fees are billed in advance. All FFXIV Subscription Fees are non-refundable, with the limited exception in Section 4.7 below."

SQUARE ENIX NEVER NOTICED US THAT PRICES WOULD BE ADJUSTED!

Sorry but, SQUARE ENIX ARE WRONG!

as i see, this is "notification in 30 days". first autopay in old prices, next in new.
okey, dear SE. I've bought all packs in steam, now you change everything. y whould i buy them once more if there is nothing new in steam? Ive bought already 2 ff14 origin games, when the game comes out and it was pointed, that steam game has its own policies. for now steam and non steam are equal. so, whould you transfer me all my addons and characters from steam account to my non steam account? or what?

Economics and localisation aside, the timing and none announcement of that hike coinciding with the SB release is pretty appaling and shady.

I hope you all manage to get refunds where its applicable :/

Contacted Square Enix support and this is what I got:

Basically, the decision is deliberate. Now we need to know if Square will actually budge over it, because a lot of people will not resub after this.
