I was kicked at about 2am pst from the game this morning. Tried to log back in and was informed that I was cancelled due to unpaid fees, etc., etc. I've played years and have never ever seen this ***before. My fees have all been payed and am current. What gives?

I think SE's billing everyone. I just found out a couple more of my friends have been billed as well.

Yah, I made a post about it this morning under another thread. Called customer support and got d*cked around as usual. Got the "I don't know what you are talking about. It must be your bank" BS.... I left a note on the SE forums. Hopefully they respond.

SE has the absolute worse customer service I have ever had the misfortune to experience. This is taking "whacked" to the next level.

I dunno why, but for some reason this reminds me of the movie "Better off Dead" with that newspaper boy riding his bike, stalking the main character, chanting throughout the movie... "4 weeks.... 20 papers... plus tip..... 2 dollars! I want my 2 dollars!...."

*Imagines SE as the little boy on the bike*

Didn't they waive the fees for April? Maybe it's messing them up. *shrugs*

This happened to my husband account. He tried to log in around 4pm est and his account had got the whole stupid error that he had unpaid fees. Looked up what the unpaid fee was and it came up as March's billing fees :/

Appearantly, they're not only NOT waiving april's fees, but are also double billing

I haven't been billed for this month on either of my accounts aside from the Abyssea expansions I bought for my mule.

Step 1: Call SE support.
Step 2: Threaten to go to WoW or Rift if the issue isnt fixed.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit

None of my 3 accounts got billed but seems like alot of people are getting. Alot of reports now it looks like.

All I read and heard from SE side is its automatic in the POL system but yet they gotta be able to work around that if its a glitch.

This whole month is supposed to be free... and its on the record, so if they billed you, they owe you that money back.. and if it bounced stuff within your checking account.. then they owe you for the fees there aswell... theres no way around it, if they dont acknowledge that fact... then you can sue them.

good luck .. i didnt get billed but id be calling SE support if it happened to me. and raising hell for that matter

Threats dont work with companies like that, especially saying you will go to another game... however if you do say that you will contact the BBB and your attorney gen. then that might get you a fix

Same happened to me and SE told me that I am being billed for March service..which I understand and this is why I am intentionally using a prepaid visa/mastercard...have been unfairly double billed in the past and when one of the accounts was hacked all banking info was exposed so for us prepaid is our safety net. When I asked customer service about billing for May I was told that those fees will be due in the upcoming registration maintenance.
