    What time does Pre-paid time run out?

    Because of SE's limitation on how much Crysta you can put on an account, I have to manually re-activate my subscription each cycle. Problem is, That's going to cycle "within a day" and I am trying to figure out what time it will cut. Will it disconnect me while I'm in a dungeon or Tower run?

    Crysta's on there, but not enough to cover it entirely because of that limitation.

    i was curious about this myself and hung around online when my sub ran out, i'd say i was online 2-3 hours over my subtime before i got bored and went to bed
    it didnt give me any notifications that my sub had expired or any threat to boot my buns out but sure enough after logging out i couldn't log back in
    im in no way saying there isnt a limit though i'd say just refresh your sub on your last day every month but if you forget you probably dont have to worry about being randomly ejected from a dungeon in progress either

    Don't recall where, but I have heard of people evaporating mid-run because their sub died.

    I remember when I use to pay my sub with crysta. Didn't run out because of the limit, but one time I forgot to add more before my sub refreshed. I did get booted out. Can't give you the exact time it happened but it was after 12pst. It could differ between everyone though, depending on the time they paid their sub in the first place... idk

    When paying manually(and forgetting), both XI and XIV have disconnected me promptly at 12am PST. Many years ago while playing XI it would carry on for a while as long as you didn't log out, but at some point(2011 is when I first remember it happening) they changed to the immediate cut-off.

    I had a glitch with the autorenew once, and got an error message that I first thought was a 90k, but the numbers were different. I don't recall what they were, unfortunately. Trying to log in again, I got some long error message that I'd never seen before and wasn't appearant that it had to so with the sub, so I kept trying to log in again and again. Finally someone told me over a chat what it was about, and found an email notification I'd missed regarding the autopayment. I think it kicked me around three hours after midnight CET (Central European Time).

    Recently a friend got kicked from an instance because of their sub running out, and that happened around 2-3 hours after midnight CET as well.
