This also includes players who are currently playing on the 30-day free play period included when registering the full version of the game and those with multiple accounts."

Looks pretty definitive to me.
No, definitive would be "This does not include additional services such as retainers, etc.". Seeing as when you add retainers mid-month they get pro-rated into your monthly subscription and all charges occur on the same date, the logical conclusion even before they clarified would have been that it probably would include these additional services in the additional subscription time, as not doing so would no doubt be more complicated. If it was as definitive as you think, they would have given the opposite answer when they clarified. Yes?

When you don't know, don't speak authoritatively.
