SE charged me 30 bucks this month. Since when does it charge at the first of the month? I didn't get my full time in March and it still cost me 15 bucks!!
AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE I'm going to explode

Is this a mistake or do they do this on purpose?

you came back in the middle of march right? theres your answer right there, SE charges at the begining of the month so it won't charge you half price for playing half the month. They'll charge you full price. It happened to me when i quit the game. Which was in december when i was lvl 30

If you come back on the very last day of the month you will still get charged for the full month, good to keep in mind when creating new characters. You got charged for the half month and the month you just played.

SE didnt charge my friend at all this month and just cancelled his account. Even though he had the money in the account and everything. Now they say his card isnt valid or some crap.

yeah the billing in this game is seriously messed up. I cant stand how they do it. Talisin and I signed up one of the last days of october and we got billed for the full month iirc.

I remember I made an account but couldnt pay for 3 weeks. So I missed out on the entire "free" month. I mean they can tell if your playing or not -_-

That not what happens at all (or at least is supposed to happen).

You get your free month, which goes on for 31 days. After that free month they charge you a % based upon how much is left of the month, and then they bill your next month in advance on the 1st of the month.

However, and it does tell you this in the text (while you register content IDs) if you read it... If you register a content ID (not including your free month one) then you will be charged in full, regardless of how much time is left in the month. So if you reregister on the 30th of the month, you'll effectively pay for 30 days that you never got.

Is it annoying? Yes. But it does tell you about it (I can't remember where, but I know it does) so theres nothing that can be done.
