Clarification for Australians subscription payment please?

Did you use a EU CD key to make your account? If so, you would be charged Euros instead of USD or JPY. CD key affects your billing and future expansions as NA does not accept JPN or EU CD keys as most have already noticed from the EA access codes, same thing applies to EU and JPN codes.

EU cd keys are not just limited to Euros as you say. What about GBP????
Just the difference between Aus = Euro vs GBP can be anywhere upto 44aud a year.
Why not give all countries a set currency payment.
Or maybe make everyone convert to yen?

Yea sorry, I had forgotten about pounds, but I do know if you own a EU account you have to pay in either pounds or euros. Not entirely sure how it is being defined but my point was that if you had used a EU cd key, your account will be billed accordingly to that country's currency not because of PAL systems.

Yes it would be much easier for us if everyone paid in one currency as well as remove the region restriction on CD keys. In 1.0 my NA account simply refused my card as it was not from a NA billing address, I had to beat around the bush and purchase Crysta.
