So I played FFXIV when it first came out. I also played FFXI:


I was invited to the Beta and registered it before the 30th of last month and was able to play some. I was told constantly that as someone who played FFXIV I would be able to play this game at launch if I put in a subscription.

"Great!" I thought. I was going to pre order but thought "why?" when I was going to pretty much get the game for free. Game is launched...I try to log in and i get the topic title error message. I click the link to go to the mog station to activate my version and i have the following:



This also shows I have no characters, yet I am here on the forum with the character I played in Beta,

When I click on the meteor to add a service (or just click add service) I am asked to enter a code or to please purchase a window copy of the game.

Under that is an account status box:
"Account Type: None
Subscription: Inactive
Payment Method: None
Number of Characters: 2 Character（2）"

So this also shows that I have 2 characters.

Just...what am I doing wrong? I have the original Game Registered. I played it at launch and like many others stopped. I was invited to and participated in this Beta...and now I can't seem to find where 1.0 players get to play?

I am not concerned about the free days. I just simply want to figure out how to get the service to recognize my 1.0 status.

Has anyone had a similar issue and solved it? I did submit a ticket to Square in the mean time.
