Seriously, the homepage were quite clear, it is 11 Euro per month if you pay for 6 months at a time. It is just the same system as any other sub system you see out there. And you ALWAYS pay in advance for subs.

If I understand correctly, you are asking if you pay at the end? The answer is no.

If you choose the 6 month option, you will be billed at the end of the 30 days game time included with the purchase of the game. There isn't a game company on the face of the planet that will give you any subscription playtime before you pay, just hoping you honor your word and don't duck out after having fun for a couple months.

The one thing I find weird though is that the game is $15 a month USD, or $13 a month USD for a 6 month prepaid subscription. 11 euros = 15 USD, so that would seem odd for that to be the discounted rate to me.

So now I'm curious - are people in Europe paying significantly more for access? Is the 30 day fee 11 euros too (in which case, EU players aren't getting any bulk 6 month discount at all) or is it more?

Its alot more expensive.. Our usual fee is 13 Euros a month if you chose 1 month recurring, that is alot more than $15 a month.

Hi,

kagome_04b14_ESO Thanks for the answers. I don't believe there is sub include EU taxes on online playing. It's weird. :S

@Glassweaver We pay 12.99 euro per month. I know, I have to pay at the end 30 days for 12,99 euro. But the point is, Bethesda really wants for first 6 months 65 euro? If I saw true, I'll pay per 180 days for 10,99 euro. Is there not discount for it? I guess, I'll pay directly 65 euro for 180 days. Beacause, method of calculation is 10,99x6= 65,94 euro. I'm guessing, I understandr wrong first time. Now everything is clear.

Thanks for everyone.

Good!

Now, I cannot change my subscription method! Here is the error:

"The transaction was not authorized. Please check the provided information again or contact support at http://help.elderscrollsonline.com."

What is that? :S

Do you have enough money on the credit card you used to set up the billing? I think you need to have those 65 euros on it for the transaction to be authorized. They will not take the money from you until the free 30 days are up, but the money does have to be on the card right now. (This is my understanding of how it works - to be 100% sure, ask customer support)

Hello again!

I checked my credit card panel and I'am much surprised now! I guess Bethesda took the money for 65,94 euro. My first 30 month is free, as I know. Why took the money?

Well most mmo just withdraw 1dollar or something, not the whole sub amount.

Hi,

I have a big problem with monthly payment. I cannot contact with ESO Customer Support and I want to contact via forum with ESO Customer Support. I bought Imperial Edition a month ago. Now I redeemed the full game code. And the site canalized me to payment panel. I choose wrongly 180 days payment. I don't want use 180 days. I want to turn my payment subscription to 30 days. This problem is very small than my other problem.

Here is the second problem. When I choosed the 180 days, it said to me "You will be billed on May 4, 2014 for 65,94 Euro" It says May 4. But when I checked my credi card panel, Bethesda has already took the money. I also attached an image proof for 180 days payment date.

Also if it will be required I can attach Bethesda's provision picture from my credit card panel. I want my money back. :S And I want to turn my account to 30 days subscription. Then I'll pay 12 euro per month.

And one more thing, I cancelled my subscription, when I learned this issue. And I cannot open again. Because Bethesda took my all money in my credit card. Please help.

I hope they will help about this issue.

Thanks,
Best Regards,

In the US you save $1 to $2

ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS are currently being PRE AUTHORIZED when you sign up.

This is a temporary process. It is not a charge, it is a 'charge'. The money will come back, but it WILL NOT be available until your bank/credit company finishes the PRE AUTHORIZATION. There is no info on any changes to this currently.

EDIT- Sorry, caps aren't for yelling, I don't know how to talk to people that don't speak english first, it's my weakness not theirs.

first of all, there is no valid information about it on registration page.
Second, 1 cent would be enough to check the authorisation. heck, 1 dollar/euro would do. Taking 65 euro to authorize is stupid.

I wish, the money come back quickly. Because I canceled my subscription. I don't have enough money for resubsciption. When the money come back, then I'll revize my subscription.

Okay then.

I'll call my credit card company.

Thanks for the information.

Hahah, normally at a hotel the charge is the first night, and tax is not included because it is not a 'sale'.

At fancy resorts, maybe more.

I called the credit card company a little bit ago. This authorization process was connected to the discretion of the company.
