Getting a refund.

[Abatement]

Wonder if the bolded line will put a damper on your plan on getting a refund.

This right here sounds good but I can still stop payment on my card for false advertisement.

And they also have the right to ban your account for refusing to pay for something you bought

He actually cannot take his payment back.. depending on when he bought it. Most card companies would question him then go to the 3rd party which would be SE, they did nothing wrong, he actually signed the ToS and got what they said they would provide to him.

He could get a refund straight from them, he's only preordered the game. Again, it hasn't been released. If he was feeling extra mean, he could charge back, and there's nothing SE could do about it.

SE *could* conceivably sue the person doing the charge back. Odds are they won't, as it won't be worth the time trying to convince the cops that it's worth their time. But it could happen.

No they can't, as long as he does it before the 27th he's in the clear. If they won't offer him a refund on his pre-order (Not the released game) he's well within his rights to do a chargeback.

Does it matter? He can't play.

Depending on the credit card company, they'll issue a refund and then go after the vendor for a refund. But in the mean time, the vendor (SE) will very likely ban the guy's account at a minimum.

Depends on many things. Something like this *COULD* wind up being a strike against somebody's credit, so it could matter a lot.

Honestly Abatement, SE is trying to fix the problems... Its just they game has small windows off maintenance. Honestly SE will probably say no and how could you stop the payment? It was already sent to them. All I hear are complaints, im getting the 1017 error but idc.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saC13RJ8CUs <--- really. there are more games to play out there. Just take a break and go play a shooter or something. These pointless threads are well pointless. Maybe SE is reluctant to post anything that may not be 100% true? Maybe they are just trying to focus on whats more important... maybe fixing the game/login issues.

Hi white knights! Have you seen your real lives lately? No? I see...

That "white knight" = no lifers labeling is getting old... lol.

Had 8 hours of work this weekend. Still did my usual weekend bike rides. Took my lady out to dinner... and I've still made it up to Garuda in the main story quest.

All hail Heavy pop NA/EU Server Hyperion~

Although... my girl popped this pic of me after this long weekend :P
