Click and Buy and Crysta? Garbage, SE

[Zezlar]

"you can ONLY buy even amounts of Crysta while the billing service is an uneven amount of money."

I used Ultimate Pay (VERY easy, and friendly too use compared to C&B). I bought 795 Crysta as I had some left over from my FFXI Crysta purchases. Took me about 20 seconds. No reason to complain really.

Also, I don't mean to be an ass, but if you can't figure out this process when they posted a guide how to do it on the lodestone. I don't believe for a second you're in college or filled out a FAFSA.

Or you could read the post and surmise that the complaint is in reference to a billing system that shouldn't require two third parties to be easy - this is actually inefficient for the consumer. It should also be noted that said transactions should not be subject to service and transfer fees. We already play an incomplete game and the least SE could do is have a simple and straight-forward billing system. Also, 50% of the post was in reference to C&B being bogus.

Based on your post I would imagine that you also are in college (or graduated) since you made a dick post without working to understand the other side of the conflict.

Not going to disagree, C&B is garbage. Ultimate Pay isn't though. My post was more in reference to the fact that you CAN buy specific amounts of Crysta. As long as you buy $5+ worth of it. They also don't charge service fees.

I got dinged a bit with Ultimate pay on FFXI while purchasing Crysta, wasn't much, but was at least 40cents over the exchange rate. I think a lot of this region dependent and bank dependent, so who knows.

In the US it's pretty painless. Ignore C&B, click UltimatePay => Paypal => enter in the exact amount if you desire. Takes all of 2 minutes.

That said, PLEASE implement continuous, direct-billing to a credit card!! Even a continuous, automatic debit from Paypal would work.

yes this I agree with, still baffles me as to why we could direct pay (and still I might add) for FFXI, but not FFXIV

I feel sorry for the other countries that can not use Paypal or Ultimate pay.... SE really needs to get their billing in order before 2.0 thats for sure -.-
