Anyone else having trouble being a werewolf now since update?

So to sum it up, since werewolf is now classed as a criminal act it seems you cannot transform anymore unless you want a guaranteed bounty.
I'm not sure if its a bug or its supposed to be this way but it makes it practically unplayable.

So i was killing a world boss in western skyrim, i turn werewolf to kill it. No npc in sight, no bounty.
I transform back to human and go to solitude, now as soon as an npc see's me they yell "You're a werewolf!" and i get a bounty and get attacked by npcs despite not being in werewolf form for at least 5 minutes.

What makes this worse is i can pay my bounty, die or whatever and it'll just carry on and i'll be attacked constantly.

But what does stop it, is to port to a entirely different zone and back.

*i haven't tested this in any other parts of the map yet, I've only had it happen so far in western skyrim.
*edit: Tested this in summerset, it was fine and didn't happen? Possibly an issue with western skyrim?

    There are no werewolves... anywhere.

    Of course, there never have been any in the game I am currently playing, which I need to do SOMETHING while I wait the hours required for the Repair to finish.... since the patch ate something in my Launcher and I can not even Access ESO currently.

    Other than that, everything is peachy.

    This was a big problem for Necromancer (it might actually still be, but I haven't seen any mention of it in a while, so maybe it finally got fixed) where people were using their Criminal Act skills out in the wild and still somehow getting hit with bounties even though no NPCs were around to 'report' them. I imagine it's the same bug, just being applied to WW now. I wonder if Vampires are having the same problem?

    I can't imagine it being on purpose, so I'd suggest sending in a bug ticket.

    Definitely sounds like a bug. I'm okay with getting a bounty when in town and transforming to and back but what you described is likely unintentional.

    First thing I did was report it, hopefully it's just a simple fix if it's a bug.
    Just for now I'll have to be careful if I decide to transform.

    There's more maintenance today, so I'll check again later to see if it still happens.

    i am having the same thing happen in the Rift. went to fight the giant and mammoth wb and turned into a ww to fight them. turned back into DE when i was done and went back into Riften to hang out at the withered tree inn. as soon as i passed the guards by the tower before you get to Riften i had a bounty and the guards attacked me. let them kill me and got the bounty cleared. when i went into riften npcs are running away from me saying look a ww and other things but i dont have a bounty now.


    also just had the same thing happen in vvardenfell. went to fight the shipwreck cove world boss. turned into a ww and when i was done turned back in to my DE. went back to vivec city and got attacked by the guards. mind you i had no bounty until i got back to vivec city.

    i don't mind the criminal system with ww's. but is this how it's supposed to work or is this a bug? that's all i want to know.

    In the open world there are merchants that travel the roads. They can report you for crimes so... Be careful.

    after repeated testing i can say with confidence that is not what is happening here.

    there is also a discussion about it in the Bug Reports forum here in case anyone else comes into this thread.... https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/529731/werewolf-justice-system-bug#latest

    I have none of these issues, and I use my Werewolf form fairly often.
