Aalodar Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 so game is supposed to be 14.99/month like every other one on the planet however all four of my accounts for my family had to pay 15.98 each, and i can get noone at customer service to tell me why or give me a refund, i have no issue subbing to the game my whole family loves it, but if we are gonna be shadely charged and overcharged then i will leave if this is not fixed.

Morpheous Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I use time cards, I wasn't overcharged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battyone Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 14.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omnifiend Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Some time card codes aren't even working, and phone support is unhelpful, to say the least. Some credit cards aren't even recognized. The billing team for this game needs to get its collective head out of its collective ***. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaur Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 most likely you live in a state that is militant about internet sales tax (NY for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piddletrenthyde Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) It is State tax I believe. When I was stupid enough to sub to WoW I was charged $16.05 every month. EDIT: Illinois here.

That's odd. Almost sounds like a 6.5% sales tax is being tacked on. Are MMO subs taxable in some places? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucasomega Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I'd agree that it's probably a tax. It was billed the same across all accounts too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navycrow Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Your state tax's.. on net usage is my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aalodar Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 Your state tax's.. on net usage is my guess why does trion and also when i played wow never cost me over 14.99, this is the first one ever to cost over 14.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallowen Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 this is why you cancel your card info. so they cant sneak in other payments without telling you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnie Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 why does trion and also when i played wow never cost me over 14.99, this is the first one ever to cost over 14.99 I'm not a pro on US-laws, but don't you guys have to pay the taxes 'later' if you aren't charged right away?

VLudovico Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 why does trion and also when i played wow never cost me over 14.99, this is the first one ever to cost over 14.99 It may have something to do with the location of the company that provides the service... like if you live in the state that company is based.

Don't know if it works this way in every state but in California, all sales taxes are PoP (point-of-purchase) and it's ultimately the responsibility of the reseller to pay them, not the consumer. In other words, if the reseller forgets to charge you, the state still charges them the same amount. Of course, in California sales taxes only apply to goods, not services.

truedark Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 huh? how does that answer my question? Sales tax is something you pay at the time of purchase. Some states require it even on online purchases with a company out of state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
