A way for some people to upgrade to VIP
I bought a copy of CoV:CE last week for the Hero Clix and Cards. Haven't opened it yet.

No go. Last Saturday, I tried to activate both the serial number from an original 2004 copy of CoH, and an NCsoft 60 day time card. Neither went through.

Don't know why the time card didn't work, but I know why the original CoH didn't work: It never gave extra game time if you already 'purchased' CoH through other means such as through the CE:CoH code. However, it worked the other way... if you first had the original CoH, then the CE:CoH code would give you extra game time.

Other than *time card*, I wonder if a *game card* would work.

I had previously activated a serial code from the CoV:CE, so that would probably account for it.

How about a *game time card*?

A number of months ago I bought a copy of CoV:CE cheap on Amazon figuring I could get a cheap month for my second (non-VIP) account. When the game's closing was announced and all billing was turned off, I figured I'd better try to use it while I still can. It worked just fine, and that account is now VIP.
So basically, if you can get a boxed edition of the game that you haven't already applied to your account (such as Good vs Evil, Architect Edition, Going Rogue), you should be able to become VIP again if you aren't already. You can find them for less than $10 on Amazon, cheaper than a month subscription. Of course, if you already have all the different boxed editions applied to your account, that will not work.
I would think game time cards would also work, but that's just speculation.
I just thought I'd share this in case it can help anyone.
