So ive started keeping track of my subscriptions which i petitioned to ccp and came up with no results.
Last month all 3 of my accounts changed billing dates 3 times, and 1 of them was charged a week before its billing date.
this month one of my accounts was due on 12 MAY and i got charged on 1 MAY Zulu or last night.

We talked about the how from month to month a payment will change by a couple of days depending on the month since a sub and plex are based on 30 days but there was no answer for 1-2 weeks difference between what my account says i have a payment do and ccp computer systems extract the payment.

Has anyone else that keep track of their subscriptions noticed this? i find it difficult to keep up with the subscriptions because of the change in times.

He said he already petitioned it.

But keep on them, Do not bring this into the forums if you can avoid it, pretty sure discussing petitions will get you a lock

I think CCP uses a 30 day billing calendar. Since not all months are 30 days, the billing date may jump around for your sub.

Log into your account on the website, under account tab there is a transaction history, and yes the date has drifted on mine.

yeah the drift is by a few days month to month, not 1-2 weeks which is the problem for keeping track

February, and small drifts add up in a while, so the payments will continue to drift until your payments will be months off. Case closed, next question.

CCP Billing 10k accounts x $14 USD per account 7-14 days early allows them to collect an additional week or better of interest on your money.

Not if you assume Dr. Smith works for a coal mine, then it makes sense.

Yes, sometimes they need to move revenue around. Let's see if their auditor finds it. Of course Iceland's accounting practices might vary a wee bit from the rest of the world. Pirate

If you think that there is a worthwhile amount of interest on corporate accounts you are gravely mistaken
