Why can we only buy 500 WP or 1000 WP when a subscription is 700 WP?

Just a suggestion... Let us buy $7 worth (or at least input our own amounts within reason)

[SpidyFreakshow]

when buying kafra points, theres an option to pick exactly how many WP you want to give, why cant they do the same with buying WP?

They want you to buy KP as well :-p

They want you buy buy 10 usd worth of WPE instead of 7 usd.

It's an increase in profits and it "looks cleaner".

Shady, if you ask me.

At least make a section to purchase a straight "subscription" instead of needing WP to do it.

Oh hey, we're lowering subscriptions to only 700 WP! But... you still need to pay us $10!

Or make the 3 month service a flat 2000 WP rather than 2100. Most of the time I don't really care tho because I end up spending the WPE on KP. I guess there should be a option for those that only have enough for 700 WP though.

Since were talking bout WP already is there any way to gift WP points?

It's common douchbaggery from a company.


They want you to buy the points so you can buy stuff in their games. Then they have set packages saying "10,000" points for the lower value of points, and the subscription is bought with the games points and costs 6000, for example.


However, this is also a clever way to refuse refunds.

You pay usd for the games points, you don't pay for the service you buy with those points.


Therefore, if you complain about your purchase of a 100 Point item that doesn't work as it says it does you won't get your points back.
If you decided to call your credit card company saying "Someone used my card, pull the transaction" you pull away the money spent for the game points.

This leads to them blocking your account because your credit was pulled, ie; frauded card or unhappy user that by force took back his money.
If you like the game but want your money back you're faced with a dilemma.

Either shut up about it and hope a support ticket will actually help(it won't); allowing you to continue playing your belowed character.

Or

Force a refund and have all your linked accounts blocked because you "frauded The Company".



In the Gravity Terms of Service you agree that you will recieve NO REFUNDS. Whatsoever. Nothing, nada. By making your account you say "Yes I accept that if I buy something and even if it's not what the website states and I want my money back- that I won't get it back".

This however, goes against a law regarding customer rights. =w=

Though not exactly 700WP, you can register for a playspan account for 100 free UP and buy the 800WP for $7 after applying the free 100 UP. If you get lucky and they accept the transaction, that is. =_=

So technically the subscription is STILL $10. Lowered price my ass.

Plus in ANY scenario (that isn't massively lengthy) you end up overpaying. I feel terrific!

I guess it's time to give up... At least I can look forward to NON GAMING BUSINESSES actually charging me THE PRICE ON THE TAG.

Not necessarily. If you save up the extra 300, in three months time you'll have enough for a bonus month + 200.
