I'm a rather new player to SWTOR and I've subscribed as I read up it will help my progression though my lvl 55 Jedi Sentinel can't level past 55 and my main page where I can choose my character clearly states that I am a subscriber. Anyone know whats going on and why? Is there something I am missing that I need to do to be able to level higher?

I am someone who is relatively new to SWTOR and i recently purchased the 60 day subscription. Though my account is still acting as if I am a free to play player. On the website I can see the page say that I have 59 days left in my subscription but nothing in game
