The customer service sucks? Have you actually met CCP? Best customer service of any game developer, ever.
CCP's customer service is pretty damn good. I've never, not once, had an unhappy ending.

Yes, sometimes it takes a little while for them to answer a petition, but sometimes they get flooded with them. The recent issues with the launcher probably didn't help. When the queue is low I've had response times in minutes.

Anyway, rage posting here won't get you the help you need. If you take a deep breath and post something in the technical help section of the forums (not a rant, but something that actually identifies your issues) you might have your problems fixed by some of the other players.

CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer.

So my credit card was just charged my monthly fee. What sucks is I have been unable to play since Monday. If I ran my business like they do here I'd have lost all my customers and been out of business a long time ago.
The customer service sucks. Ive put up a petition, Logged a bug. no answer in 3 day. I've even uninstalled the game and reinstalled (after 2 hour download) and it still wont work. great update by the way.
At the very least I think I should get credit for the time I cant play. But it'd be real nice if someone answered my petition.


Petitions get answered in order of importance.

Angry, whiny rant petitions are the biggest category and you are near the bottom of that huge mess of entitled diatribe that CCP's GMs have to wade through.

I feel bad...for them.

I wasn't being sarcastic. Even when I was asking the wrong questions in a petition, CCP or GM told me WHY they were telling me no, and how to avoid my predicament in the future.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

What about all the players who don't come to the forums?

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?

Chargebacks hurt businesses, especially gaming companies, since chargeback rates are high in online gaming. No business should continue dealing with a customer that does that, period.

Whatever the issue, I can guarentee that bleating about it in GD will definitely hasten resolution. Yes Sir-ee. Guarenteed.

So do ISPs, cable providers, cell phone carriers... I could go on all day. The real questions here are simple. 1) Did they charge you for a month before or after you noticed the game wouldn't let you in? 2) What does your bank have to do with a charge CCP levied if the charge is otherwise valid?

Also, demanding a refund for being unable to play is a bad idea. If the playerbase as a whole were entitled to refunds just for potential game time lost, CCP would lose millions to players with jobs, classes, kids to pick up to and from school, out-of-town vacations, sleep schedules...

Those individuals are the lucky ones. They have never had the displeasure of meeting you or reading your awful shitposts.

Transfer your character to me, and go play Aion. I will pay the transfer fees. Already have my card out.

Maybe if you actually explained what issues you're having…?
It's hard to offer a solution if no problem has been articulated.

"I can't play" is hardly information enough to get help.
