    Odd Subscription Question

    So, I realize that I'm only 30 days off of my next veteran reward and was thinking that it would be cool if I paid ahead of time for it. However, as it turns out I just paid for this month's subscription this week and so I was wonder, if I set it to 90 days recurring sub, will it automatically charge the cash now for those days?

    Appreciate any thoughts on this.

    Edit: Just realized that my scheduled payment is 9/4. If I set it to 90 now, will it take the cash ahead of time?

    No, it will not. Changes to a subscription period will be put into effect once the time you paid for runs out.

    So if you get a reward in 60 days and you're subbed for 30, if you set it to a 90-day reoccurring sub it will wait until the 30 days are over and charge you for 90 days after that.

    It's silly.

    Boy, that sure does suck! Oh well, at least I actually get charged a few days from now rather than having to wait a whole other month. Appreciate the insight on this. So much for instant gratification, but at least it's only a few days out.

    Thanks Winter!

    You can bypass the restrictions by using game time cards though. Redeeming those codes automatically adds the time to your sub and any rewards you would have earned.

    Yeah you cant just stack up a ton of time for some odd reason like in most games.

    Dunno why they'd care if someone pays up for a year on cards just for the devotion to the game or even just the rewards, its money in the bank.

    It's not silly. It's how pretty much any subscription game works.
