I just had a deduction of 14.99 from my bank account for ESO. I thought the online game was now free to play for members? I bought the Imperial Edition and have been playing ever since launch...

    It's free to play period. You can still subscribe to it and gain XP bonuses, gold bonuses, and Inspiration bonuses for crafting, and you get an allotted amount of crowns a month but that's it.

    Honestly no reason to subscribe imo, just buy crowns whenever you got the $$ and save them for DLC.

    You must cancel your sub if you no longer wish to pay for it. The subscription now is for the "plus" membership, which offers some perks including a crown stipend at the beginning of each pay period. You can absolutely play for free now, but you have to go to your account settings and cancel the subscription if you don't want to pay for the perks. :)

    I don't pay $14.99, they stick me with a $78 bill every 6 months. :wink:

    I checked and I have 20 days left. I decided to cancel the Plus membership until new content comes out, or some other reason to renew it.

    I'm not having to pay, I'm choosing to pay.

    They were pretty clear that your subscription would continue for the ESO+ if you had not cancelled.

    Did you go in and cancel your subscription?

    If not then you neglected to stop the sub which was required to play but is now for ESO plus benefits.

    Just asking...
