Changes to Purchasable Game Time Options for the British Pound (GBP)

What will be the excuse if Blizzard remove the same option from the rest of the EU?

But they haven´t.

Tell your bosses when they do these things they should communicate as to the why. And while you’re at it: tell them their communication stinks overall.

On that one I think half the world could also easily point to a place.
Yes, just being cheeky with a joke. No need to take it too serious. :stuck_out_tongue:

The best excuse I could think of is that not many people buy the 30 day game time, mostly 60 day. but still doesn´t make sense to disable 30 days.

Europe is huge so they don´t need to poop people like me that go out and buy a 30 day game time token.

Just because they haven’t done it yet, does not mean they won’t do it.

The reason that I assume: the pound will be volatile and there will be more transaction fees because: Brexit.

Still, we shouldn’t have to speculate and they should tell their British customers why this is happening.

totally, all we can do right now is fill in the blanks which may not even be true at all. it´s a shame they only talk in riddles. bad habit of theirs.

So how about you do it across the whole of the EU and not just the UK seeing as we are paying for access to the same servers?

Because the EU economy won’t be as unpredictable as the Britain one. We don’t have to pay for what your politicians have bungled up.

Not that I find it acceptable what they are doing to you. Blizz has enough profits to cover the transition but we all know: they rather hurt their customers and chase bottom dollar than throwing out a lifeline .

blizzard make england pay double for montly sub. thx.

Oh heck yeah! That’s why I made the joke. We totally were colossal douchecanoes to just about every nation on the planet at some point. Apart from weirdly Portugal. We’ve always been buds with Portugal. Today’s History fact with Brigante, the Alliance between England and Portugal is the longest standing Alliance in the history of the planet, remaining continuously in place since 1373, so essentially 648 years… Remarkable… Weird, but remarkable.

I’m really gutted about this. For 11 years I used to like and prefer giving Blizz £52ish every 180 days (6 Months) I cant buy Subscriptions as I never know what money I have coming in.

But paying £19.99 every 60 days (2 Months) feels wrong and I feels like I’m paying more than I used to.

Blizz why did you make this change? And could you change it back to 180 days? Are you that greedy that you’ll risk losing players? I so very nearly quit at BFA but Shadowlands is great. My only wish is to pay £52ish every 180 days (6 Months) for Game Time not subd, and to have the ability to duel wield 2 handed weapons on my Death Knight.

What a load of absolute bollocks

I guess Blizzard have decided that 1 month of playing is not enough to get a player properly hooked to all these flashy dopamine-inducing mechanics.

That, or they want you to forget that you have an active sub so they can keep sucking you dry.

The sunny uplands, streets paved with gold, blue passports and as many unicorns as you can eat, Red bus…crashing head-on into the granite wall of reality, before spinning off a cliff, and plunging into the caldera of a volcano.
Spectacular for the rest of the world to watch…for the passengers, not so much.

if you`re so poor that you have to worry abou the price of childrens video game subscription, you should not be playing in the first place

Single ticket to the Winsford Salt Mine, reservation in the name of Miamalkovaxo.

Why don’t you just… you know… “Purchase subscription” > Cancel subscription?
That way you’re still purchasing 6 months at a time, but cancelling a sub?

Preach it.

Unfortunately, the sensible Brits are trapped in here with the maniacs.

The small consolation is that it looks likely that series 2 of America:2021 is being released next week so the world will have someone else to look at and go “Jaysis, did they just…”

(That is dark humour before anyone takes offence, the events in America are certainly not a genuine laughing matter given that people died)
