Prepaid Character Slot/Server Transfer/Rename Card

At the moment, and for a long time now i have payed for my CoX account by time cards, and got me thinking if i wanted to buy extra toon slots or transfer a toon, there is no way for me to do it.

I hope this comes in the future!

Maybe make it a non-specific voucher, so it could be used for anything?
In fact, it could replace timecards too, and be for any NCSoft games - you'd have like an NCSoft bank account that you added the vouchers to - so if a month of playtime cost 15 dollars or Euros or whatever, but the voucher you bought was for 20, you'd still have the 5 left over to be used later.
Or you bought one for 50, used 15 for CoH, 15 for another NCSoft game, and the remaining 20 could be used on other stuff like more slots, or stored in your game bank account.

Yep exactly! I dont know if it would be more difficult to make a universal card/token/voucher .. but would certainly make it easier on me, the buyer!

I've got a feeling I read something that NCSoft are doing for some of their other games but the details escape me I admit... but yeah a generic NCSoft account that you can top up and take funds from there for every game function

It's so hard to find timecards for me, since ordering online isn't an option for me.

The only other option is to get one of those prepay credit cards that the Daily Mirror seems to print a voucher for often enough.

The benefits of a credit card but you pay cash at Paypoint outlets (in garages and newsagents) to top-up with however much you need. Then you can use it as credit card payment online.

That's the current workaround; there was a similar thread about someone else who couldn't get timecards because their local shop was plugging WoW cards instead.

Its something they really need to look at i think. I agree it is easy to get your hands on a WoW timecard .. much harder to get hold of an NCsoft one!

I will have to have a look into this Pre-pay credit card thingamebob!

Recommend 'Splash Plastic' as it only has an annual fee.

Nothing they can do about that. The stores choose what they stock.

True, and it makes things very hard for people like me that only have the option of a cash payment! Which is again why i say they need to look into what can be done to promote the sales/stocking or a pre-paid time card!

It was something like the "NC Coin" or something similar which was going to be universal and was coming in the near future..... That was a while back though, it might of been canned.

*Edit* It's not been canned, just for Exteel at the moment
