…and subscription cancelled.

=======================
Your Blizzard World of Warcraft® Subscription - 1 Month is now canceled

Hi there ***********,

Your subscription for World of Warcraft® Subscription - 1 Month has been canceled. You’ll no longer be charged, though you can still play until your current subscription expires on Dec 28 2020 11:11 AM (PST). Return to Azeroth at any time by renewing your subscription!

Regards,
Blizzard Entertainment

=======================

Was a fun campaign and all which is why I decided to reup after 5 years, but this is another price increase I can’t, in good conscience support. Especially with record sales.

Back to Overwatch.

It’s a positive for the future. A detriment to existing funds in battlenet balance.

Increased 30 day sub. Didn’t you read the thread?

I think just pre-paid game time? Subscription is still the same

Good thing I bought some CAD WoW Game Time call options at $14.99. I just made $1,000 suckers!

Yup. (I’m in the pre-paid gametime group)

140

to that I ask, dear god why? Just get a credit card.

Blizzard blue post says:

Players who use bnet bucks are taking a (small) hit because Blizzard is in effect devaluing bnet bucks valued in Canadian dollars. And only for game time. Want to bet this was ginned up by a lawyer? lol

This was a really clumsy announcement. While I now see that the original post does not impact our subscription price, I think most of us have no idea that there is a difference between subscription price and game time price.

You should have been more clear that you’re just screwing over a small segment of your customers.

Game isn’t worth it. Mind your own business. My money, I spend it where I want, if you wanna hoard balance and pay with a credit card then be my guest.

If your paying with pre-paid gametime, you’re still spending money. I have battlenet balance because I buy wow tokens with gold.

WOW is free for me, and through wow gold, I’ve bought other Blizz games.

The rage would be insane if they jacked up the US prices. Personally I wouldn’t be playing anymore either. Not enjoying the game enough.

Good for you :slight_smile:

Oh dope, I love spending more money for absolutely no reasons when im already spending more than other countries.

Seriously tho, anyone at Blizzard left with a brain? Or y’all just letting Activision poud you without consent?

Wise man once said any message involving price and currency translation for foreign customers is going to bad if it can’t be explained in two sentences or less. :rofl:

I don’t mind this change. Discounted Blizz services, took a hit to battle net balance though.

That’s just it. Americans would be pissed if they had a price increase. I’m not going to support this price hike. My dollar votes, and I vote not to spend more.
