Okay obviously title is misleading, but this afternoon I attempted to log in and got an LM-17 ... (wut) ... and when I checked my e-mail it had this:
So yeah, they fail. My second account was left untouched bazaaring all night, so not quite sure how they fucked this one up. Now I'm on hold, but others from my linkshell have reported getting it corrected and are currently in game. (I am of course playing on my mule, so I can at least talk to people.)
So glad that the fact that I don't have any money most of the time and that my card gets declined more frequently than it should means that I'm suspicious or I'm trying to cheat them, I've been a loyal customer since 2004. This is how I know they are stupid. I never once requested a chargeback from them, that is their fail.
It also wouldn't hurt for them to make it so that it doesn't say "LM-17" and fucking freak people out over this shit unnecessarily.
Also, don't bother with webchat, been waiting on that for the past three hours with no response.
So, long story short, don't panic if you get this message. It is probably them being fucking stupid.
