Let me preface by saying that I don’t blame anyone for this but myself.

So, I’d bought the game about a week ago, and was so frustrated by the lack of PVP (no 3v3, no deathmatches, no 2v2, not even dueling) that I asked for a refund. I received a refund. Fast forward a few days, and I am willing to overlook the ridiculous lack of PVP. Maybe they’ll add something later, after all. Who cares, maybe I’ll just keep playing. So I buy another game…

Well, as I’m registering my serial code, it asks me: “Do you have an existing account”, why yes I do. And I click yes, and my modern browser immediately jumps in to help. Let me log in for you, my browser says, and logs in for me. Except… now I can’t log in to the game. That account has been suspended for a refund, and both my old and my new serial numbers are registered to it. Wow.

Now I’ve dropped 120 dollars on a game I can’t even play. This is embarrassing, but I could use some help here…. please… like right now…. Please?

And? Sorry but you are not going to be a top ticket for them, say over a hacked account or such.

Be patient.

Please be patient. But do be aware, you will not be allowed to simply add a new code to the old account and continue playing. You will need to start a new account.

The Support Team can and will help you with this, but please allow a bit of time for them to get to this ticket and respond to your request.

That makes sense, can’t have people getting refunds then wanting to pick up where they left off later on. New account seems entirely reasonable.

I’m totally fine with that, just waiting for response. Thought I’d share my silly situation.

So, I got an answer to my ticket, and apparently they’re going to issue me yet another refund. Lol.

Oh darn, I was hoping you would simply set up a new account with the new code.

Well, thank you for letting me know!
