Matrix Online

Er, yeah... he did.

Matrix Online isn't worth looking at yet IMO. Wait a few months. At present it just has cool combat and not much else.

You couldn't change the credit card number the subscription cost was billed to?

Verto: No, they don't let you change it. Well at least they told us it can't be done.

[Verto]

That is...what is the thinking behind that?

I mean, what happens if your credit card gets stolen and you have to cancel them?

[DrSpike]

And why would you both play the same Char? Surely he would have kept your char in case you were interested in returning later?

[FrostyBoy]

No the Credit Card number cannot be changed, but you can have up to 8 (or was it 12?) characters under one account.

I'm a bit confused by that. I've played WoW Europe and they hit billing problems after the free month because the card authentication system was rejecting a lot of valid cards. While waiting for them to resolve it everyone was switching cards around without a problem.

In your case you are trying to switch credit card owner, address and even country all at once. That might trigger off their "we hate e-selling" alert and make them uncooperative. As far as they are concerned the account is probably still the property of your flatmate since he paid the monthly fee before.
