I expect if there is a discrepancy in the acct manager, it just hasnt been updated yet. Seems as though they are adding a link to the FFXIV login page on the 16th Dec. Expect everything to be rattled out before that date

well either way conversion from USD 9.99 to UK GBP is £6.40

including a character

but according to my lodestone account and square enix acount manager they will charge me £9.99

which is not £6.40

[Sasagawa]

we will have to wit and see but my gut feeling is telling me its going to be £9.99

I just hope I can pay in dollars !

[AshToreth]

I have no idea where you are seeing these costs, i cant find it anywhere on my account to try and confirm what you say....

EU = 6.99euro + 3.00euro = 9.99euro
US = $6.99 + $3.00 = $9.99

^THIS is what I'm angry about.
Why are English and American players paying ~$10 while people from EU pay ~$13?

@Sasagawa:
It says £6.89 on the information page.
One character is already included, so it equals roughly $10.

Just kidding, but yea that does need looking at, however I was just responding to the UK grievance of the OP
