Dear Cryptic,

I wish I could purchase your Lifetime Subscription while it's on sale, but I find myself scratching my head when it comes to the payment choices.

I never use a credit card and never will, I also don't have a pay pall account.

I shouldn't have to put in that kind of effort to purchase something from your site, when you have the option of using Skrill for purchasing Zen.

Why isn't that option available for Lifetime Subs? I find it unnecessary work for players that don't use things like Visa or Credit Cards.. (which I find very insecure to begin with)

Thanks,

aliensamongus

    If it is anything like Zen you can do it Via Debit Card (which would be normal bank card you use to purchase good in shops etc)

    Failing that Paypal (i was like you meh about it) is so simple to set up and use i did it in 5 mins.

    hope this helps :s

    When I choose optional payment choices, I still get the screen where I have to fill billing information (including credit card number), which I find very strange when I clearly ticked the circle of "Add a new payment method".

    I wonder if this is unintentional.

    *Side note: The SUBSCRIBE NOW button on the new Sale announcement isn't properly linked, nor is the price reflected properly when you manual look for it. Only once you found it, the price is properly reflected.

    It's PWE who is responsible for accounts and money. Cryptic must put the informations into the game.

    but I would be happy to be able to buy the LTS via Zen as I did with the DR pack.

    I went through the trouble of making a PayPal account. Now that I have it and charged the money needed for it, it's still asking for a Credit Card. There is no iDeal or Skrill option, or it just writting off the necessary money.

    'le sigh......

    Welp! Guess it seems they don't like direct payment.. they want credit card cash..

    PW/Cryptics loss, I guess...

    You could always buy a prepaid visa/giftcard.

    Well i think its great that it stats there is a sale on and when i go through to the final stage of payment it is the normal price there is no discount on it

    I have raised a ticket but even when you go to there normal subscription page it still shows the full price

    Just wish when they did these things they make sure it all works and everything is cheked rather then cutting corners.

    While this isn't completely related to the topic itself, can someone gimme the link for getting the lifetime subscription?

    I found:

    http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9002223-lifetime-subscription-sale

    but the actual "Subscribe Now" image at the bottom isn't a link for me.. I'm sure I'm blind and it's right in front of me, but I'd appreciate any help. :confused:

    Edit:

    Ugh.. found it.

    Interesting that people don't have credit cards. I can't fathom why.
