automated "High Risk Payments." detection.

How exactly does this work? Because I don't get it.

here's the story:

Friday evening I attempted to buy NCoin (For a prestige pack) for my brother while he was at work because the CP leader asked me to hurry and get it so we maximize our drops/adena.

Which failed due to different billing info.

Now neither of us can buy NCoin and Customer Support won't help either of us. They're just telling us to wait. (It's already been 6 days, how much longer are we to wait? A month?!?!???? so our whole CP is 99 and we're still level 96/97?)

To top that off, this has happened multiple times - not even when I tried to buy NCoin on an account that didn't match my Paypal Billing Info; just on my multiple accounts; all which matched my billing info - and they were all resolved within a day and unlocked my payments.

We emailed support on Friday, and didn't receive a response until Sunday.

We called your customer support line, and they don't deal with anything except "Fradulent purchases". That's nice.

It's now Wednesday and neither of us can buy NCoin still.

Is this how you treat your repeat customers?

Is this the respect we get shown when we're some of your biggest customers tallying up a total of over 1k USD in NCoin per month as a CP?

Prior to this situation I had no problem:

buying 200% runes for myself.
transferring a character from Shilen to Bartz.
buying appearance stones for the healer in my CP (via gift function).
Buying NCoin on about 10 different accounts to buy the Hero Weapons you released prior to the Lindvior update.
Buying NCoin for a CP mate whom couldn't afford to at the moment - when his billing information didn't even match mine.



Due to this treatment my constant party has all unsubscribed from Prestige runes and is going on "strike" from buying NCoin until you step up your customer service.

This is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. I'd say that NCwest has the worst customer service in all of America, but your customer base is too small to even consider that title.


Yes, we've looked at the option of sending someone the money on Paypal to buy NCoin and having them gift us what we want - but we shouldn't have to do that.

Put a ticket again. When I had this very same problem they were very prompt in their actions. After 1h I had prestige packs in my 3 main accs.

Put in another ticket and wait another 6 days for a response of them saying "There's nothing we can do."?


haha, good joke :eek:

I can only speak from my experience dude, not joking.

Yeah, but when was your experience? Like I said it's happened before, and they dealt with it swiftly. Now it's like they're not allowed to do so as some change in their rules/guidelines.

When they put the prestige pack in store. Now I have problems again buying coins, lets see how it goes.
I have the same problem and its been 17 days i cant buy the Pack.

GMs here can respond and escalate this mater to your Director?

17 days... LOL


I've just submitted another ticket pretty much BEGGING them to take my money, lets see how this goes.
3rd support ticket, same BULLSH&& response. They won't help me.

What's the point of support if they don't do crap all?

Whatever your revenue loss not mine, NCWest.

Looks like the only way to get around this is to get in contact with Seoul HQ and report the Customer Support for not doing their jobs.
2 more of my CP mates all petitioned the same thing as myself, just to test what responses they'd get.

They both got Matt S. as their respondent, and both were shot down with the same automated / copy & paste replies that I've been receiving.

Somebody needs to be fired and never work in Customer Support again.
