Dark & Light: Inactive Accounts Charged on MMORPG.com (http://mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/gameId/58/setView/features/loadFeature/996/SpecialReportBillingIssues.html)
When players signed up for a Dark and Light pre-order last November they agreed to have ClickandBuy, an online pay service, charge them for any services rendered by Farlan Entertainment for the game Dark and Light. Players could have signed up for this pre-order and never once logged in to play the game, hence expecting to never be billed. All they were doing was signing up for pioneer accounts and giving information in case they wanted to play and be billed accordingly.
Now, this past week, it appears that players who had signed-up for the service, but had not logged into the game or ever played it were billed $9.99 or 8.03 euros.
