Wow, maybe I'm being presumptious then. Man, that's harsh for the NA. Hope the players make them pay in the long term for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is some serious anti consumer action if they really will do it only in EU. Goes to show WG really does not give a flying duck about us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It been said before..its due to legal considerations that they give back the doubloons..not because of interest or concern to us: the players... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so what happened to the rewards you got, and what happened to the build ? Indeed I was. Filed the ticket minutes ago, so nothing yet. Offered to let them deduct the 1250 gold for the reward connected to the booster, i.e. 'santa's mega gift', if they must (sic!).

Roger That, Thank you I am not that interested in the ship as such, I like the ship building dock thing, However because forum users are threatening the ship with focus fire, I feel it is becoming " The Next Hate Ship " and I LOVE HATE SHIPS, I think if some one hates my ship, It gives " MY TEAM " a tactical advantage, thus its becoming much more " Interesting for Me " 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PV] HentaiSquirrel Players 393 posts Report post #20 Posted December 17, 2019 FYI, this is copy+paste from the ticket i filed: Dear Madam or Sir, last Thursday I purchased a 'special booster' for the Puerto Rico shipbuilding event. Due to misleading advertisement regarding the conditions of how and in what time frame / with what amount of effort the Puerto Rico can be obtained I hereby demand a refund. If you must, deduct from the 6000 doubloons I paid for the 'booster' 1250 doubloons for the received 'Santa's Mega Gift' container, but please do feel free to refund all of the doubloons. In light of the possibly increased workload due to current affairs I expect the refund in the course of 1 work week, i.e. until Wednesday next week.
