Days not counting?

[WestrnWizard]

I've been playing on PS4 after getting the game for free during May. But I had to buy a subscription after the free trial ended, but when I look at my days subbed it has been stuck at 30 even after 20+ days on my entry sub. So I wanted to know if there was a bug there or not?
An additional thing was that I still have 22 days left on my sub even though I last bought it on the 12th last month? It hasn't been renewed for one thing, so if any can help me understand this it would be helpful.

Days subbed updates when your payment happens since it's calculated from the number of days you've paid for. I.e. You won't see it increase from 30 until your next subscription cycle at which point it should go to 60 days.

Since this sounds like a new subscription, you get some free time iirc. If you paid a subscription that free time gets added onto it so you don't lose out on it which is why you're seeing 22 days remaining despite having played for 23 days already. I'm not sure if the free time counts towards days subbed or not, but you'll be able to tell when you hit the next billing cycle. I'm pretty sure it doesn't, but not 100%.

Thanks for telling me what was going on there. I will say though that I did get baited, to say the least into getting the free 3o days 4 months ago since I could just play for free with the same experience. But I have been enjoying it none the less, so thanks for helping out with this topic.

Since you're a new account you might have qualified for the free 14(15?) days of subscription you get for leveling a character to 30 on a preferred world.
I remember taking advantage of this when we got the first set of new worlds back in the day and I believe the program is still around. That would explain the additional free days.
