Subscription Issues.. Subscribed with no subscription?

A good friend of mine is bringing me back into the game... and despite my issues with the game I have nothing better to do and told my friend I would play pretty much co-op with her. 

 


anyway so I placed in order on paypal for reoccurring  sub and when it went through paypal it came back to the star wars website with an error.. I tried again same thing. I went into paypal and saw i had two active reoccurring payments scheduled for $0.00. I cancelled one and let the other one stay active. Now if I log into the star wars site it says under my account


"You have Subscribed"


but if I click on subscription on the right it says


"Your play time will be ending soon. When your play time runs out, you will no longer be able to play. Please sign up for a recurring subscription plan or redeem a Game Time Code."


 


and under payment history it just says "There is no account activity to display"


 


oh and yes I can get into the game and play just fine


 


i posted this on official forums and sent email to customer support just seeing if anyone here had this issue.

    The only thing that i am afraid of is that they are going to charge me anyway. I've tried to cancel it, so i am sure that no error will happen, but couldn't, tbh, this is a worrisome issue to me...

    thing is if you cancel the active subscription off paypal's website they can't charge you because if they request the money paypal will reject it.

    Yesterday it stated that I was out of time.  Today it states:

     

    Your play time will be ending soon. When your play time runs out, you will no longer be able to play. Please sign up for a recurring subscription plan or redeem a Game Time Code.

     

    I verified that I can log in,  Maybe they gave everyone some courtesy time?  Either way I won't be subscribing or playing today.  I'm also bummed that they didn't perform a valour rollback.

    Seems that some accounts aren't updating properly on the website. Wonder if this is related to the missing "cancel" button some have been reporting?

    I have experienced a similar thing with other MMO's when using paypal. It seems to take some time for Paypal to update the MMO properly or something. There always seems to be a bit of a lag between updating paypal and it showing on your account.  Mostly the MMO wont even know about it until they try to request the money and it gets denied. THEN they update the info on the account page.
