Buddy rewards

Hi there, I considered sending a buddy invite to a friend of mine, so went to the buddy program, but as I filled the form, I noticed I could only pick a 30 days reward, no plex, is there some account limitation for plex rewards?

This is Starbuck, repeat, this is Starbuck! I'm a friendly! We're all friendlies! So lets just...be friendly!

None that I know of. I just checked and I was able to select PLEX.

Oh well, just figured, skipped a point in the terms and conditions:

CCP reserves the right to restrict eligibility for some rewards according to certain criteria, including but not limited to minimum account age or minimum client log-in time of the inviter.

I can confirm that CCP is limiting PLEX for older accounts: I just checked with my accounts and 2 oldest accounts can select 30 days or PLEX, newest account can only select 30 days.

Please define "older" account? I've played for a year and a half now.

My 4-month old account can select PLEX in buddy-program but my 15-day old account can't.

However as said in "Terms and Conditions" account age is just one of the possible limiting factors.

I figured even once you paid for an account, so long the trial period hasn't expired, you don't have access to all functionnalities, I had a 21 days buddy trial and signed on for 3 months, I tried to buy something on the market and it said trial accounts couldn't buy it.
Guess I'll be considered trial account till the end of my 21 days.

No, trial restrictions will go away at once when you pay - but you do need to relog to game.
