  1. What happens if my account address and my payment address differ? My account address I had to somewhat fake due to SE account not having Mexico as a country option (I just used my actual address and then added Texas as the state), will I just get locked out of my account now? I tried to contact SE about this before and they told me to make a new account with my right address but the thing is I can't select my real address because Mexico isn't on their region list.

  2. I have an NA SE account and am in the EU now. I literally cannot change my address to my local address as you cant change the region of a SE account. With any luck I can still use paypal and buy crysta or apply time cards, because as it stands there is no way my billing information can match my listed address on the SE account. (I currently have it set to a friends address, but Ill be damned if I have a clue what I originally had it listed as. That was 15 years ago!)

  3. SEPA is the main payment method in Germany. A lot of ppl had no Credit Card some years ago. Don't know how it is today. But it might impact a bunch of German players.

  4. This video genuinely just saved me a headache later, because my info was out of date, and had an address from several years ago before my series of moves! Thanks for the heads up, because I would have missed this had you not posted!

  5. Iโ€™m from Malaysia. Playing this game since 2.0 and have to make a random address which I copied from Google because SE donโ€™t verified Malaysia.I just preorder the new expansion and I donโ€™t know if I can play it because of my unknown address. *sorry for my english

  6. This is probably not for security but for localized costs with the Data Center travel. For example, if they decide to open a server in South America and have lower sub/mog station costs.

  7. Oh man I hope this wouldn't affect buying subs with crysta casue SEAsians like me have to use a fake US address. Square(and really a lot of JP companies) doesn't seem to think we exist

  8. I wish I could change country/region of registration. When I created the account seven years ago, I didn't pay attention to it and I made a mistake that cannot be changed at all

  9. I have never moved to new location or country since I made my account during 2013 will this effect me still? Or Iโ€™m good and donโ€™t need to change anything

  10. Thanks for the heads up Haps.

    I know the answer to this is probably "administration/operation reasons" but I'm going to say it anyway. Why are they doing this 2 months before a big expansion release if it has the possibility of locking people out? Why not do this like last summer or something when nothing was going on.

  11. I might also add that if youโ€™re using a VPN the payment may not go through. Every time you try a payment and it fails if VPN is on, youโ€™ll get dinged $1 each time and will be refunded after a few business days.

  12. Question, since i have not changed my account even i haven't changed my email do i still have to do it or i'm safe since i use Visa for my sub? then i don't need to change only reason i ask is because i know SE is super sensitive when it comes to changing your email… so i don't wanna be locked out my account.

  13. Carte Bleue is the historic payment card in France, but most of them nowadays are actually Visa cards too, so no issue there.
    SEPA is a format of bank transfer in Europe. Often used for monthly payments for example. I actually had no idea you could use it in the Mog Station.
