Amazon's support on Crystalline Aura | Getting a refund

So. Basically, My Crystalline Aura is and has not been available even though I already paid for it 2 days ago.

This is their response on my refund request:

They also sent me this useless link:

Steam then refers to Amazon:

The next step is calling my bank to create a transactional dispute and eventually fraud, since I bought something, but have not received anything.

People paying with paypal
You can log into your paypal and report a problem with the transaction at the bottom and eventually get a refund:

If you plan on playing this game I would strongly advise against charge backs or refunds. They WILL ban your account.

Their loss. I’d spent more money on the game if it actually worked. Banning me, is banning my wallet too. :man_shrugging:

You can’t sell a product and then not deliver.

They also explained why people are having issues with the aura and even gave us 30 days free (even more if you bought founder packs). Not defending them for taking so long to fix it but they’ve shown that they are at least trying to make things right.

Also banning accounts for charge backs/refunds is pretty standard in most games. In lost arks case they literally have to since apparently they cant remove items from your inventory that might have been purchased with that money.

“30 days free” wtf, they gave us 3 days

Who gave you a 30 days? on what server? let me guess: Galatur, the might USA land.

yea and i haven’t been able to matchmake for more the that

yeah it’s been a week already since last time i was able to play the game

That chargeback with the bank will bite you eventually in the future, but hey you will get your money back after the bank process your dispute, just wait as this takes time for the banks

If you dispute the charge with your bank steam will revoke access to your account.

They are allowed to do thiis. Charge backs are not a friendly procedure and give them additional costs.

Your entire steam library will be gone. They have a right to protect themselves against customers wh cause unnecessary costs and a charge back is the absolute last step you should take when you no longer wish to have dealings with a company

For online digital goods you have to give a fair window for them to fix the issues. A user can who claimed to have contacted a lawyer regarding 2042 was told there is. No exact time frame but. A month if reasonable for a digital product.

Who ever took your money are the nes responsible.

Your rights in the US, EU and UK state you have 14 days to refund a digital product with no questions asked.

If you download, install or use the product via any means you waive this right.

If you bought the founders pack you a shit out of luck. Steam provided you the pack.

You accept there can be issues with digital services such as server issues or downtime.

You have used the pack so your rights state you aren’t entitled to the 14 day weekend.

For every bit of currency from the pack yiu have spent it goes against you.

You need to prove a substantial portion of the product is unplayable.

Which is goigg to be very hard since people are progressing fine if they have patience with the queues you can also do all the other parts of the game.

Tldr: you aren’t getting a refund unless you sacrifice your steam account and all products on it. Don’t buy “packs” on steam with your money that will ts converted into a store currency in game.

Who ever you paid the money to is responsible for the items you purchased.

Well my opinion is to try harder to understand them (Amazon) and make some difference helping them and help your self.
I have the founder pack and every day im running without Aura.

Restarting and integrity check and sometimes it fixes and sometimes not.

Every day i play with 20 % gameplay aura somedays without it.

No matter you payed just think u have not.
Let them do their job wich is actually a hard job and u will get your aura later as we do.

Just think positive .
Just bare with them.
Think not just your self but 1.3 miliion having this issue band be patient.

Three words.

Good words, Patience, Persistence
And u will get everything.

Imagine contacting the bank for 4 euros charge back asdkekw

A little update

Case closed in my favor.
I got my refund, and no ban :slight_smile:
