Still going to be a £1.50 direct debit on top of that? Best not be.


You probably need to switch banks.

At FF they mentioned that a location hasn't been decided yet, so without that they'll struggle to set a date, but if they want a mass of EVE players from across the country the earlier the announcement the better.

CCP hypothetic subscription by currency according stats since 2008

1st - 40% $$$
2 nd - 20% €€€
3 rd (new) : 13% £££

what's left : $$$ cuz ISK (official) would be ShockedShockedShocked for exchange taxes.

Now you pay plexes in $$$, ETC in $$$ (would be screwed in any other currency atm) because Paypal exchange taxes stills better than paying in Euro directly. so $$$ should be close to 80%.

and YES, WE have TAXES in Europe, or e-VAT if you want, but charging 40% more for single month of EVE in $$$ to EuroZone is just outrageous.
At this rate it's not any kind of real taxe, is just the Mighty APPLE's TAXE.

US guy : You want a computer ? Here it is. 1000$ + 500$ apple taxe.
Greek Guy : You want a computer ? oooh you live in Europe, goooooood cow, shiny cow. Here it is ! : 1000€ + 500€. yes of course, VAT applies on our own taxe ;) you must reimburse some chineses you know :-D

Anyway, it's a lost fight in advance.

Also i laughed at the player nationality.
1st : US with ENG client
2nd : UK with ENG client
3rd : RUS with RUS client
4th : GER with GER client
5-99th : who cares, Learn ENG and pay in $$$ pwease !

Next translation : Japan, because it's a challenge to us !

Come on, be realistic, just a little at least?

and make us pay 15% taxes, not 50%.
Cheers, and congrats for the (future-ex ?) Euro-island. God save the queen.

That is a whole lot of words but I'm not at all sure what this means.

Sorry, it just means without any threat that CCP should pay attention to the second currency for their game.
Many languages, one money. This is Euro.
It's sad we have to pay 20$ a month. If only 3m ETC still exists, in $...
