In my travels around the world, one of the things I discovered is that in the UK, the locals prefer to use their own kind of money to pay for stuff.

Others here at CCP have noticed this too and as a result, as announced at Fanfest, UK residents will soon be able to pay for EVE and related services in their own currency. Please go here to read more on the details in CCP Garlakadl's blog, and let us know if any questions arise.

P.s. Hope I'll see many of you in at the player meet in London!

Got a question, both my accounts run out days before the May 1st crossover. Will i still have to pay in Euros before then? Its gonna be quite gutted to be shafted by £5-6 because im a couple days early :x.

so, i couldn't fail to notice the part where it will be cheaper to pay in GBP.

so... two questions:
A: will the euro price be adjusted to compete?
B: if not, being from denmark, how can i pay with GBP?

Second that.
It would be great, if you could comment on that.

FYI you can't seem to change the subscription NOW to take effect from May 1st.

I've bascially had to cancel my subscription (which is billed monthly) and have to wait till May 1st to resubscribe when the new rates come into play.

I may have to let my account lapse until May 1 so I can pay in £, either that or try and sell some crap off for plex.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

As was mine, if the English are getting a discount for being on "the isle" I want a discount for being on "the continent".

how does this scale with the Japanese billing?
