Lol....... this is hilarious.
I certainly hope they don't refund you with these blatant lies as reasons for refund. For the others that want to refund I have nothing against you if you have a valid reason but people like the OP saying lies to get refund is not acceptable in my opinion.
OP you should link this thread to paypal for extra proof so they refund you. /sarcasm
How is it taking without paying? It was a digital code? NCSoft, just merely disables the game from the players acount? I don't see where the 'taking without playing' took place. Also, if its just one or 2 people then, no big deal give or don't give a refund. Arenanet and paypal are essentially out nothing. Furth paypal is very big, it funded Space X, I can assume that shooting rockets into space is fairly expensive. So, I suspect they have a good sense of when to refund and when not to. Now if its 1000 people wanting a refund, yeah there is something going on. If that is the case arenanet will have bigger problems then refusing refunds. I will admit I'm doing a refund, because I did not like the game.
Probably not. But if saying on a forum with 'Douchbaggery 'makes you feel better, then say it. Like I said I didn't like it. So, if its just me then I guess its just me. And I leave you to your game.
or wait until a few weeks before the actual release, im quite sure there will be some sort of open beta like SW:TOR had just before the game goes live, they will be giving weekend beta keys out like candy!
They're always trying to convince us.
No rules broken. No video on GW2's main site lists it as in game footage (just promotional). The game has been listed as F2P with a cash shop since conception and initial announcement. A.Net should be your target for a refund, not your bank. If you could just go to a bank to reverse payments for goods then everyone would be driving an Aston Martin.here is a bucket full of fish heads

Funfact; you need to play the game before making the assumptions of clone-ism. You're right! It is a WoW clone, it has graphics, and sound, and a sword, and a health bar, and a left-click action, and a hotbar, and a loot-system, and a . . .
It's a GW system, GW has always been F2P with cash-shop. Look it up. Gameplay footage is exactly what you get in game.
This game has tons of innovation. This is the first game where I have been told, pick a direction and find adventure. I'm sorry, but your 'WoW' has quest hubs. GW2 Does have quests, but they aren't so restrictive. It'll give you a vague quest such as "Help this town." Sure, you can kill the invaders of the town, but you can also grab a bucket and put out fires, rescue trapped citizens. . . This happens for most quests. Random events happen quite often and are able to scale to the number of people participating.
Want to PVP, click a button. Don't want to do your story quests yet? Go into the world, find a lookout to find out whats going on around and throw yourself in. I'm sorry; but GW2 is well worth my $60.

That GW2 was going to be F2P with a cash shop has been known since, what, 2008? Not long after the game was first confirmed t be existence, at least.
And I don't what game you're playing, but combat has been EXACTLY, 100% what I expected from watching numerous videos.
You have not played the game yet, you have played the beta. The cash shop is not enabled in the beta, but has been discussed in depth in many sources including with the developers. What has triggered your panic?

Reading is hard for some people or they just don't care.
To be fair the OP has yet to prove any of the points he made on this thread so... we are still waiting.

This closed beta is only available to customers who pre-purchased GW2. It is considered part of the package of the pre-purchase, not available to others who were not as fortunate to be able to pre-purchase. By requesting a refund, he would have in reality played the closed beta for free, which is not intended to be the case. For that yes, to me it seems to be taking without paying.
To you, its just disabling your account, no big deal. But you have also denied another person a chance on playing the closed beta since the pre-purchase copies are limited. You denied ANet 1 customer who could have pre-purchased and experienced the closed beta. You contributed to the server load when you logged in to play, costing ANet resources, as well as to the lag that many particpants of the closed beta experienced. Personally, I do not think the customer is justified in his request for refund. Of course, that and his rights are totally separate issues.
Saying that what you got is not as advertised is fair, though I think what needs to be establised is whether ANet intentionally misrepresented the product they were selling, or shown some form of negligence in informing the customer. Hell, lots of advertisements on TV exaggerate wildly, do you really believe you can eat a mint and suddenly you're transported to the North Pole??
Lovely troll methinks? For one thing, all the game play videos are of gameplay, there are no cinematics. So that's a silly argument. It's also based on the GW buy to play model, which also includes a cash shop.
You call it a WoW clone and a CoH clone, at the same time? Alrighty then.
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is quite clear that you have failed to be an informed customer.
If you went to Burger King and bought some fries, do you ask for a refund after eating it because you did not know that those fries contain potatoes?
Correction; the cash shop is enabled in the beta. They give you 2000 gems for free as a beta bonus.

These are both very good points. Also, as far as the cash shop goes....it's like buying a smartphone and then buying apps. The apps aren't a necesity for the phone to do what's advertised, they are simply added features you can buy if you want them. I have no problem with this business model.
