    You are actually right, I cancelled auto demo on my alt a few days ago, all I had to do was enter the house, and I had the cancel auto message pop up in my chat box.

    You dont have to interact with anything, I didnt even touch any item in the house, just went in tp'd right away.

    In re: FC houses, that's not how they work. The FC leader doesn't own the house; the FC does. As such, any FC member zoning into the housing interior will reset the demo timer. The demo timer on houses does not have anything to do with the rank hierarchy.

    There is a separate master abandonment timer that is completely independent of the housing demo timer. Expiration of the master abandonment timer will pass company master to someone who has logged in recently. The master abandonment timer will reset when the FC master logs in.

    We apologize for any inconvenience that has occurred when playing Final Fantasy XIV. Unfortunately, the issue you are describing is not a technical issue. I will be moving this thread to "General Discussion".

    Thank you for visiting the FINAL FANTASY XIV Technical Support Forums!
    gotta love mods when they just move things and thats it....at least give them some sort of answer, you guys have direct communication with GMS and probably devs

    The technical forums are specifically for client technical issues. That's it.



    As for OPs issue, its likely that they just missed the window. SE has never made any announcement that there was a bug, and I can guarantee if there was such a thing it would have been posted about and documented on their end because that's a big PR nightmare if people's houses just started randomly relinquishing when they were using them.

    I'm not sure where the issue tbh, I have cancelled auto demo so many times and never had any issues with it, I instantly get the pop up message in my chatbox telling me that it has been cancelled when I enter it, so I think we arent getting the full story here, also as long as you dont get the pop up message, its not cancelled.

    This is not true. I've let my house get to 30 days before when I got caught up playing other games and had the red message in game. Upon zoning in, you get the message that the estate is no longer scheduled for demolition and don't have to interact with anything at all.

    I had this happen too. Lost my Medium house in the Goblet, despite having entered it prior to the demolish and contacting support just gave me the same auto responses for about a week before I just cut my losses.
    Terrible service

    I'm not so sure that's true. When I've got the warning my house, it has reset by simply entering my house.

    That exactly is how you cancel auto demo, I think people are finding excuses because they didnt do it on time, in any case, if the house is demo'd, there is nothing the gms can do, they cant put the house back up and make it belong to someone again, best case scenario they'll get a "sorry it might be a bug but we dont see it" response, worst case they'll get ignored, but I am pretty sure we dont have the full story as I have cancelled auto demo a lot of times and never had issues, just by entering and tp'ing away

    I always interact with a retainer bell or an NPC (mender etc) to be sure not chancing entering alone doesn't work. Read this too many times on the forum by people who seem to have been affected by entering not working.

    Be pretty hard to get the house back especially if it's been sold and how does one prove they entered the house?
