Lifetime Subscription Question

I'm thinking of getting the lifetime subscription but I'd like to confirm something first.
Through the Zen store I have maxed out my inventory and bank slots on multiple characters as well as my account shared bank slots. Would the extra slots included with the lifetime subscription increase my inventory size or do they count as the same slots I've already purchased from the zen store?
Thanks in advance.

Yes it does. LTS increases the limits beyond normal purchasing."You don't want to patrol!? You don't want to escort!? You don't want to defend the Federation's Starbases!? Then why are you flying my Starships!? If you were a Klingon you'd be killed on the spot, but lucky for you.....you WERE in Starfleet. Let's see how New Zealand Penal Colony suits you." Adm A.

The hard limits have applied in other cases like the old account-wide starter pack they offered before switching to the per-character elite pack.
Hopefully someone else can give you a real answer.
Normally, for what seems years now, the LTS had been -33% off.
If one believes STO will be around for another 2 & 1/2 years it pays for itself at this price & that's not accounting for all the perks it offers besides the 500 zen monthly stipend (at least for pc).
My bookmarked page isn't working to what I thought had it all calculated & don't want to do the math again. Thanks in advance if something like that exists.

Thank you very much for both links. One more question that you'll hopefully know: are those benefits retroactively added? For instance if I have a character(s) already at level 65 would the Inventory & Bank slots still be added? If you don't know, still thanks.
I believe my main was at lvl 65 when I bought the LTS about a year ago. I got everything that is listed. So I believe the answer to your question is: Yes.
Awesomeness, & thank you again, being a bit paranoid I'm going to go through all of my over 10 characters & write down their amounts prior then check again after. Be sure to look for your Cryptic commission check in the mail lol.
There is no gamble if you buy the ship from the exchange. Buy keys or packs on sale, then wait a few days after the sale is over and sell them for energy credits.
The odds of getting a ship by opening boxes are 1 in 250 for each key. And before you start to open boxes, the odds with 250 keys of getting at least one ship are only 67% not 100%.
If instead you sell around 120 keys you'll have the EC to buy the ship with 100% success.
"50K Zen saved up" ZOINKS, are you one of those that believe dying with the most money & toys wins, why not use it?
I've heard that smart-shopping sentiment more & more in STO & have found it always wise, especially right after I had gave-into temptation & gambled a little & lost. I noticed how keys sharply inclined in price over the last couple of days, more than usual I think.
The dil refining is a duty officer mission - Federation is at Starfleet Academy, a guy standing near the entrance to the building with the bar and services (bank, email, exchange). KDF is in the main building of their academy between the exchange and bank terminals.
> I cant find the consoles
What consoles? The ones to claim fireworks and such? Federation is near Admiral Quinn, he can see it from his desk. Romulan is near the bank terminal in the Command Center, KDF is in First City in the Barracks area where you buy training manuals.
> the only two things i got out of the purchase was a unlock for a new playable race and the vets badge via the tailors
You get the veteran T6 ships, extra T5 ship, and special small craft from the ship vendor.
You get the android boff from the boff vendor in the area below Admiral Quinn and for KDF a vendor in the barracks.
> nor can i access the large glowing white blob near ESD.
The sun? It burns, you don't want to go there.
This might help, note that you do not get the monthly zen stipend: https://sto.gamepedia.com/Lifetime_Subscription
If you want to access the Captains Table (Glowing white blob outside ESD) search your "Legacy" unlocks or "Promotions" unlocks tab in the Cstore for "Classified Access Codes" once you have claimed those, you should be good to go.
