I'm reading in some places that it should have been available until September 23rd, but others are saying it ran out yesterday. I ask because I get an error message when I try to buy it and I wondered if it was because the deal was over or if it's a technical glitch.

You asked the same question a few days ago.

I haven't checked, but try a different browser or a different computer.

Edit. Just tried myself and a error occurred.

Sounds like a bug. Submit a bug or petition.

Yaay!!!!

Howdy! I recommend filing a bug report if the website is actually bugged. I will also try and grab someone to look at the issue for you. Sorry if this causes any issue in the meantime. Big smile

Cheers. I did submit a report yesterday but as I've been given conflicting dates as to when the promo ends I wasn't sure what the issue was.

Stuff's bugged either way. Hopefully it'll get sorted soon.

That's not me "asking the same question a few days ago", that's me reporting an error yesterday. Please read posts properly before responding.

But yes, hopefully it'll get sorted soon.

If you're experiencing issues with acquiring promotional offers that appear as available in your Account Management, please contact our customer support team via a support ticket.

Providing them information on which offer you're trying to acquire, and how the error presents itself may help them with looking into this matter.

If the banner for said offer is replaced or removed, after you refresh your account management page, it may have expired.

Thanks for the response, but... is the offer still available or not? Lol It is the same for everyone, right?

That looks wrong. The Power of Two promotions usually only last for 8 weeks and run roughly every 6 months. The eveuniwiki is complied by players, not CCP though. I'd submit a ticket and query it. If the offer has expired but the banner has been left up, GMs might extend the offer or allow people who contact them a grace period to use the promo.

I get the same error message in account management that you are reporting btw.

CCP announced longer promotion.

Got a linky for that? All I can see is screenies of the message in account management. It seems odd to run it for 5 months rather than the normal 2 and not announce it with a blog or something. Possibly a date typo in account management, and it should have said 23rd of June?

If it only started a month ago it normally would run for longer either way, so @ OP it probably is still up and is just bugged in account management.

It'll be interesting if that's an intentional extension or an error and they honour it until 23rd September either way. It's an awesome promo but leaving it up for a lengthy period may crash the custom built character market if a lot of people jump into it.

Trying to remember, but I assure you they did.

I'm certain because I was surprised by the length when it was announced.

I'm looking for it now. It may have been in one of their vids (o7 & fanfest), so I'm jumping through those now.
