I submitted a support ticket with this question two days ago, but CCP hasn't responded yet. I guess they are busy with post-patch questions.

I decided to take advantage of the "Power of Two" promotion, which said on the ad, could be paid for with USD/EUR "real money" or with PLEX -- for the great price of 3 PLEX for 6 months of game time on a new account.

I guess I did the process wrong, because I simply made new trial account(s), created characters, then transferred PLEX to them in-game and ... I can't pay for the promotion with PLEX! The only payment options on the special offer page are credit cards, paypal, or webmoney.

The PLEX are in the new account's redeeming system, not in-game. Did I misunderstand the process for using this promotion? Is CCP likely to help me when they get around to reading my ticket?

Thanks. Sorry if this is not the right forum section for this question, but .. I couldn't figure out where I should ask it.

1. Login on one of your accounts
2. put 3 plex in the redeem system on the existing account (your main account is fine)
3. Goto account management page and click Power of Two
4. put in a new username and pw
5. select plex as payment option
6. ...
7. Profit?

This is the step I didn't understand when I saw the promotional ad/graphic. I just created trial account(s) and expected I would be able to activate them using PLEX. Evidently that's not the case. I'm still waiting on a response from CCP support after two days, too!

afaik, power of two doesn't work with trial accounts. you have to create a fresh account via the power of 2 promotion.

Correct.
