TheMatrix:: The Path Of Neo

Will there be "Debit proceed" as a payment-option?

I responded in another thread that Global Collect is an option for MxO and we already have players subscribed with it. Are you not seeing the option or are you encountering problems after you select it?

Direct Debit by Global Collect - Where is it?

Global Collect is an option for subscription--we already have people who have signed up for the game using that option. I guess my question is: Are you not seeing the option or are you having problems once you select that option?
