Not getting credit for C-store purchases.

I purchased the t4 & t5 versions of the Galaxy, Intrepid & Defiant class when they were first released. Today I tried to claim a t5 intrepid on a new character and it told me I needed to pay 2k Zen. Instantly I did a double take and thought this MUST be an UI glitch so I went online and checked the C-store page on the site and sure enough It was telling me that ships I had spent money on were no longer unlocked. I am being credited for the T4 versions of the ships but NOT the t5 even though I've purchased both.

Has anyone else experienced this? I didn't have this issue before season 6.

    In-game, are you looking at the Legacy tab or Ships tab?

    There seems to be a glitch with the T5 Defiant, Galaxy, and Intrepid. I've seen other posts on the forum from people who say they've purchased one of the T5 Refits and it's not showing they own them. The best you can do is file a ticket and keep on CS.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    They really need to set up a page where we can log in and see our C-Store purchase history.

    In-gmae I looked at both. I've never had to look at the legacy tab to claim one of these ships before but did it today thinking perhaps they were moved since they did so many changes. Unfortunately there is NOTHING there.

    I've ALWAYS been able to simply go to my c-store tab, hit the claim button and select the ship. I did it just shortly before season 6 went live. I'm wondering if the glitch is because I've purchased both the t4 and t5 versions.

    I doubt this exists, which is why we don't see it. Besides, it won't help in this case. If the system says you didn't purchase it, it wouldn't appear on your purchase history anyway.

    OP, do you have any characters who already have the T5 ship? Maybe use that as reasoning and submit a ticket to support and see what they say.

    I submitted the ticket and yes I have several toons that have the ship. Unfortunately the ships are also available w/ a Vet token so I fear this will be a pain to prove that I bought the ship w/ c points and not a Vet token.

    I've seen something similar, I purchased the cloaky defiant, and now it says I must rebuy it on my other 2 toons, even though I have it on my Tac Officer. *edit* Also I bought the dreadnaught awhile back on my Sci and it says I must rebuy on my Tac and Eng...

    Also, on that Tac it says I need 4 fleet mods for the fleet version. Shouldn't it be just 1 since I own the cloaky defiant (tac escort retrofit)?

    This needs to be addressed ASAP.

    I strongly believe it exists, especially since it's been mentioned in the context of people thinking they didn't receive their stipend, and a rep said that they checked the logs and it was paid out.

    Well it's been 3 days since I reported this issue and I've yet to hear a word on the subject from Cryptic/PWE. :(

    There is a GM stickky thread in the General Community Feedback section. Try posting in that. I made my own GM Ticket thread the other day and it was moved to that sticky. The next morning a GM contacted me about my problem. cheers
    You know Cryptic has Jumped the Proverbial Shark when they introduced Tractor Pulling to Star Trek Online! :D

    Wait... I was under the impression that the Vet Token is only a free ship token, just like the one you get for lower levels, only for T5. I understood it to give you access to all T5 ships that you already have access to, not those that you didn't already purchase in the C-Store. Am I mistaken?

    Edit: Okay, I am being told by those in-game that the Vet token gives you access to the Defiant, Galaxy, and Intrepid retrofits without having to purchase them in the C-Store. Makes sense, since there are no more T5 ships for free at all anymore. So, this explains MY issue (I accidentally decommissioned my Defiant retrofit and am being asked to buy it in the C-Store to get it back). Maybe the OP is making the same mistake I am, thinking they bought that one class of ship in the C-Store, but actually got it with the Vet token? I don't know, just a thought. Probably not.

    Then again, the fact that the OP knows they paid for them and are being asked to buy them again makes me doubt I found the answer to my problem. I did buy all of the other ships I still have access to after my main hit VA and got her Defiant retrofit, so this makes me think I didn't buy the ship after all. But knowing I went on a ship-buying spree when they went on sale makes me wonder. Bah. The possibility that I didn't buy this one because the Vet token made me think I already had is enough of a reason for Cryptic/PWE to not help me, so I might as well bite the bullet and buy it again. I was saving those points for the next sale, though, and since there's no other ship I want for my main that doesn't cost points, she is grounded unless I buy her a new ship. :(
