BroadSword... The new owner of SWTOR

You will not be told the truth by Owen. You live in a country that is aligned with the EU on bank matters. It is because of the EU law regarding 2 layer authentication that you can not buy anything from BS. P.S. What do you know... I can post again lol.

I live in Denmark. There is no way I can pay for this, I even talked directly to my bank (very rare these days, that a bank actually does that, and then over such a trivial matter), and they can not make it work as long as BW/EA dont change their payment methods. Only one bank in Denmark allows for this kind of payment (for now that is, untill they might have to change too) and that is a Norwegian Bank (Norway is not a EU member). BTW... Did you not know that pref. players can post on the forum?

Very few Danish banks works with Paypal because they are expencive (and too unsecure and they do not live up to Danish standarts in customer protection, meaning the banks them selves will have to hold such costs and legal fall out). And Steam is still working on their multi-factor authentication solution, so that is so far not an option yet. But I take it you will elevate this to say "change bank"?

I would not actively tell customers that THEY are to make up for a companys slack... That is part stupid (trust), but also potentially illigal: Unfair contract terms - Your Europe (europa.eu) See 11 Oh, and the "known issues" with cards from Denmark, do you know what it is?? It is because Danish banks HAS to use multi-factor authentication BY LAW. And has been required to do so for the last 11 months and 20 days. Presicely.

Oh, so that was what you meant. Well, it clearly states it was adopted in 2015. The page provided is a summary, last updated and clarified on the mentioned date. Now I know you always play strawman, but even you cant be that stupid... Because that is the time schedule the EU works with. When the text on the second hand source I found was made, it was not yet set. The PSD3 was only agreed upon November 7th, 2023 (Payment services (europa.eu)), but the final text is not made yet. So the original plan for it to become law in mid to late 2024 is in the air. But like chess, you can not really rely on your opponent NOT making the time control. You still have to play and make moves as if he does. You even asked for a link, so that must mean you know what they are and how they work. Now, from there.... The whole page/both of them, is only about this piece of paper (lawtext), and how it works... Not being able to find it, on a page dedicated to it.... Well... The laws of the EU also is in effect for both you and BW. Justification enough. Or do you always drive 200 km/h in towns, just because 40 km/h is not justified?

Yes. See the later part about problems with recurring payments/accumulated value... 28 June 2023. It is the very first thing (almost) it says. So you did not read it. It clearly states: The finalized versions might be accessible by late 2024. The member states usually receive an 18-month transition period, suggesting that PSD3 and PSR could take effect around 2026. Note that this means "LATEST CASE", as IF PSD3 is implemented on time, the countries has at most 18 months to adapt. Implemented means "IN EFFECT" and from then on you have 18 months to comply or you get some sort of punishment. Depending on what you mean by pressing, and how BW has so far ignored 2 years of warnings... I disagree. As an aside, it takes quite a long time to actually get the infrastructure made and ready for this kind of projects. The company I work for, took around 10 months to just implement PSD2. And brutally speaking, it already had a quite developed infrastructure for web-sales, and far better resources available than BW in the IT department. It is. You just have to read. Directive (EU) 2015/ of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on payment services in the internal market, amending Directives 2002/65/EC, 2009/110/EC and 2013/36/EU and Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, and repealing Directive 2007/64/EC (bpfi.ie) But here is a link to a summery: Additional Security for recurring Card Payments - Banking & Payments Federation Ireland (bpfi.ie)

They were implimented in June 2022, with a latency implementation period between 12 and 18 months. Meaning January 2024. Electronic & cash payments and rules on surcharges - Your Europe (europa.eu) Revised rules on payment services (europa.eu) Duly note that the futher PSD3 will be implimented in late 2024 too.... But any information on that I can find is only second hand: PSD3: Everything you need to know - Adyen But the real juice is here (The coloured lines are quite literally subscriptions). When those terms has been met, you HAVE to validate any futher payments with two-factor authentication, and that is were BW/now Broadsword fails. Because you CANT. Does strong customer authentication always apply? PSD2 allows for the application of exemptions in some circumstances, however your bank may still choose to apply strong customer authentication if they believe the transaction requires it. Under PSD2 the following exemptions may apply: Low value remote (online and mobile) transactions up to €30 Except: When a cumulative value of €100 is reached. Or when 5 payments of up to €30 have been made Contactless card payments up to €30 Except: When a cumulative value of €150 is reached. Or when 5 contactless payments of up to €30 have been made At unattended payment terminals for transport fares and parking fees Payments to trusted beneficiaries that you have set up through your bank Corporate initiated payments subject to Central Bank of Ireland security approval Accessing some account information – like account balance or 90 days’ worth of transactions

Welcome to the new reality: at the end of 2023 no more EU players will subscribe to SWTOR. There will be 3 servers with only f2p, and then BW will close them. Because BW was told (by me among others, the whole last year and 2023 untill I canceled my sub and no longer gives a "insert sexy word for human to human interaction"), that EU laws from the end of 2023 will forbid any payments that does not use the two-factor authentication. And that will also hit Steam, before you ask, as they are as behind as EA and BW, now Broardsword. But that is the story. Enjoy being f2p low life from the EU, like me. Because BWs answer to those of us who told them: We dont give a BEEEP about SWTOR any more, so why should we invest like 2-3 million dollars into a new payment method?. There you have it.
