Pre Paid card and redeem code?

angh · April 2014

I bought the physical CE version of the game. I'm about to redeem the codes to keep playing. I want to use pre paid cards in the future to have a better control on the subscription.

The problem is, that during the code redemption when I choose the pre-paid card option I have to provide a prepaid card number. As far as I know I have a month free and after this month I want to decide if I want to extend my subscription and buy the pre paid card then. As for now I cannot play the game I already paid for, because I have to buy a prepaid card for the second month and activate a second month subscription straight forward.

So. How to activate the game code WITHOUT having to provide a prepaid card number? And, if this is not possible and only cc/paypal transactions are valid, why this is not highlighted and why the option to chose a prepaid subscription is available?

Any ideas?

A CC is needed for PRE authorization, there will no charge as it will be refunded.

Cos this is possible -its YOUR choice to not activate game time card at sub activation, for me its good and dandy.

But thats ok -you can still choose cc/paypal sub option, and cancel your subscription after your account validation -so without any future costs (keep in mind that you need to have enough money to cover your entire sub price)

Sorry, CC is only an option. Why should I use a CC to validate a payment type, if I have no need to use? I want to use game time cards from store, and there is option for that. I just simply don't want to buy this game time card right now, I should have had a free month after which I will buy a game time card if I'd like to and extend my subscription period.

CC is not required for this game, is it?:)

@ Kemono, sorry, you didn't got it. I want to use game time cards. But doing that I'm forced to buy a game time card for the 2nd month straight before i can activate my game.

I'm in a similar situation.
I bought the imperial boxed edition and cannot redeem my codes.

When I play other mmos I use gametime codes to pay the monthly fee and I use paypal to pay for it. I do not use credit card and because of that my paypal is unverified (i add money to paypal using direct bank transfer)
When I buy a gametime code I can just pay for it directly with paypal but if they want a reccuring sub it needs to be verified.

The problem now is there are no such codes to buy anywhere. The very simplest thing would be if this company just put the option on their own store to buy 30 days, or 60 days or 90 or 180 or whatever they choose. And not make it reccuring. Just a simple code via e-mail for a certain amount of time.

So please. Give me a way to give you my money.
I would like to play the game and I want to pay for it.
I don't want to give the game back to the store for this simple reason.
Or at least extend the playable time until the gametime codes are available.

I am also having this problem and because of it I can't use any of my Imperial Edition codes either.
