EU player - US servers?

[Thalamask]

So... started playing DDO recently through the F2P model and decided it was great.

One week down the line have decided to sub.

Only one problem. The game will only take US/Canada/Mex credit cards. Do a little investigation and discover that the game I'm playing is run by a US company only, for US only folks. That's cool, says I, and hunt up the EU distributor.

And here's the problem. It's Codemasters (a company I've had serious issues with in the past) - I will NOT be subbing to DDO via Codemasters.

Is there any way for me to sub (and play) to the US servers?

Any help would me much appreciated.

Nah, many foreigners on the servers.

Gametime Cards. I use them. Or Paypal, which my girlfriend uses.

Plenty of non-US people on US servers. Come on over.

Doesn't surprise me ..... after all you are from Belgium... (comming from a friendly dutch heart )

Just a note that the version of the game run by Codemasters is not the same as the one by Turbine - different servers, CM doesn't have the DDO Store.

Are you sure of that? When I try to subscribe to DDO via ddo.com, credit cards are the ONLY option. I don't see anything for GTC or Paypal.

Thanks for the quick responses.

i got around this buy paying for some points(more than i should have )

although i know not everyone can do this, it enabled me to open up all the content at the time, and a few extras i wanted as well, im not sure how you would go about being vip from the EU

and on another point, i left DDO in the EU after major billing issues with codemasters, was very happy when the game went F2P here

Bah there are no billing issues in US mates, at least for my 2 accounts for over 1 year here, after my exodus from keeper-eu.

[Thalamask]

I think it may be website issues - I managed to set the credit card location to UK, only for it to lose my personal details and give error messages on both cards.

I'll try again tomorrow, I guess.

Thanks for the help all. See you in F2P until I can persuade them to take my money!

Me and my girlfriend play from Scotland, when we first started playing we were able to subscribe through the online process but somewhere along the line they changed the forms.

When we added another account more recently we had to phone account support and explain the problem. It's a bit of a pain to have to make an international phone call but they sorted it out right away.

You're wrong there bro. I have no prob with my credit cards. Unless you are using a Diners card, for which if i'm not mistaken, country is an issue.
