I have no clue how to contact support, and am not sure this is even the right forum...
I logged on a few minutes ago, and when I tried to log onto my Dervish- it told me I do not have Nightfall. So now not only can I not play on that character, all my NF skills on my prophecies character have been locked.
I do have Nightfall, in fact I purchased it from the GW store 2 months ago and still have the receipt in my e-mail inbox.
Was wondering if gw:en had anything to do with this, since I have never had any problems before & bought gw:en through the GW store earlier.
What the heck do I do? I'm new to the game and didn't know where else to ask for help.


Update:
Issue was resolved on 9/8.

Here you go. If I were you, I'd go click on the "ask a question" link and provide all the information you can about the problem. You might want to post images too. I hope you get through to support swiftly. Best wishes!

Hey, my issue is the same as yours.

I purchased Prophecies and Nightfall one month ago.
everything was smooth.
However, I suddenly dont have access to Prophecies and Nightfall.

I have asked NC, and they didnt give me any clear answer.
I suspect if there is a bug in their game.

The same thing happened to me. My factions and nightfall became disabled sometime around Thursday afternoon. I've been in contact with support and they've said they're working on it but I haven't gotten much in the way of answers. When I ask what happened or when it will be fixed I just get generic replies. Also, I can no longer log into my master account and the store doesn't recognize my pre-order for GW:EN

My gw account was one of the old ones that was made pre-integration to the master account so I just figured that had something to do with it since I had to integrate it when I bought nightfall and factions, but if you guys are relatively new then I guess that must not be the case. I got factions and nightfall from the online store about a month and a half ago which seems similar to you so that might be the culprit. I just hope they get it fixed because I'm supposed to be playing GWEN with friends this weekend and instead I'm stuck in prophecies with half of my characters and skills disabled!

Here's my update: I haven't heard anything further from support. I assume this is because they're all out for the weekend. However, I just happened to notice that on friday the nc store credited my account for factions, nightfall and the preorder that had been disabled.

There was no email notification or anything that this was going to take place and it seems that since it happened on friday they did it after I was in contact with them. There's a possibility that there was just lag time between the credit and the bank posting it and that the ncstore just randomly decided to charge it back and that's why my expansions were disabled on thursday. I was wondering if you guys had experienced anything like this on your accounts? I'm an adult and the sole owner of my credit card so it's not possible that someone else requested the charge back.

I don't think that is what happened with mine, I'm not really sure.

I purchased Nightfall & the Game of the Year upgrade through the Guild Wars in game store 2 months ago.
Purchased GW:EN through the store the day it came out, and the next day Nightfall & the Proph. Game of the Year upgrade were gone from my account. Cannot log onto my NF character, NF skills & hero's are locked on my Prophecies character, and cannot create the bonus items from the upgrade I got either.

But Eye of the North works, so I just have no clue what's going on. It wasn't anything to do with the bank, because what I bought has already been deducted from the bank account.

I think that the charge back was probably just the support team crediting me so that I could maybe repurchase the expansions that had become disabled. I really don't think that had anything to do with the initial disabling of my factions and nightfall because those had been purchased from the online guild wars store over a month ago and the money had already been withdrawn from my account and everything. I was just testing a theory but if you hadn't noticed anything hokey going on with getting money back then it was probably part of the solution not the problem.

I think it was just a bug that happened and disabled nightfall and factions for me but not prophecies. I can still play prophecies just fine. Are you able to get logged into your master account? My gw account + password work just fine, but my master account seems to be frozen

I'm having a similar problem, but the only thing that is missing on my account are 4 extra character slots. This is the last email I got from them yesterday:

Was just curious if anyone had gotten their like problems resolved yet.

After playing over the past couple of days, I realized I not only lost access to Nightfall- but couldn't create the bonus items from the GW:EN pre order, or the Prophecies Game of the Year upgrade. Seems after I bought GW:EN through the online store, every other purchase I had made there just vanished.

- Prophecies game of the year upgrade

- GWEN pre-order offer

so 3 slot is missing and the /bonus fot the special items work no more...

Looks like this problem is starting to come to light.

I had the same thing happen to me. I lost Nightfall, Factions, and game of the year upgrade. My problem started on friday afternoon, at the start of the long weekend, and is still ongoing.

I still retained my extra char slot I bought back in sep 06. Everything else was purchased more recently back in July and later.

I'm sure everybody knows how much it sucked over a long holiday weekend with a crippled account. Yes it sucks tremendously, and I'm sure people are angry and frustrated that they are not getting what they paid for. But on the bright side, at least you're not alone and a problem that appears to be widespread is a problem that will be addressed quicker.

I just really want to know what the heck happened.

I'm having the same problem too (Missing Nightfall) is that any Purchases made in the Guild Wars store from July onwards seem to be missing from the accounts. But my PlayNC account is having a serious issue. I can't even log in even using the password sent by e-mail when you fill out the forgot form

Anybody have any luck getting their account restored yet? I'd imagine that a.net has had a full day now to process the problem and hopefully people are recovering...

I lost my Nightfall PVP edition, what the hell? I bought that after the Bonus Mission Pack promotion, and now a ton of my heroes are without some key skills. This is totally not cool.

I didn't receive a response about the issue through e-mail today, so I decided to call the support number that was given. They were no help either. He just said this issue couldn't be resolved through them, and that the issue had been forwarded to a manager.

I understand a lot of people may be having this problem, but support isn't very efficient in letting you know what's going on. The only response I have received from them was a couple days ago asking for the card number I used for verification purposes. Just makes you feel as though you are being looked over when you get no response back. =/

And ultimateg2, I am having the same problem with my master account. Wasn't able to log into it today.

Although these issues are more serious, problems with the Online Store aren't new.

And the funny thing is that, even when those weren't resolved, they insisted in launching exclusive content to force you people to spend money on that gimmick. Tsc, tsc.

These things shouldn't happen at all. I'm becoming increasingly afraid of one day logging in and find out that I too have an unpleasant surprise.


Or...

...are they simply claiming what's theirs? :X Lmfao.

I'm curious to see the end of this. *eats popcorn*

The complete lack of communication from support is really getting frustrating to me. Generic automated responses without any details about the specific problem or the progress of the solution are all I've been able to get. I did have a phone support person confirm that the problem with not being able to log into the master account is definitely connected to the issue. I was also changing my password over and over and trying to log in and thinking that it was just me that was broken. That's something that would have been useful in one of the emails from support.

Well this is what I got this morning. There is still some hope!


<*UPDATE*> Well, everything I have purchased through the GW store that dissapeared has been fully refunded into my checking account. At least that part is fixed now, however I will miss being able to use the GW:EN preorder bonus weapons. I don't suppose there will be a way to get back.
Master account at plaync is still not accessible however.
I haven't received another e-mail stating what they have done, so I will wait before re-ordering what went missing.

Yeah, same thing happened to me, only difference is that I lost four character slots instead of three. I currently have twelve of eleven character slots in use O_o This happened after GW:EN went live. I submitted a support ticket right away, and this is the response as of today...

Hope they get this resolved soon, it's kinda irritating. I'm just glad that I didn't lose access to a whole campaign like some of you guys have, or lose a character since I'm suddenly over my limit with the loss of my spare slots.

I figured out that you CAN use skills that are locked, but only under specific terms. Your heroes can use the locked skills, but you can't control when to fire them off, only whether the skill is disabled or not on your hero's skill bar.

Obviously it doesn't allow you to micromanage the skills, but at least my MM necro can still use Flesh Golem when it chooses to use it. At least it's something.

In about four hours it will be five full days since my account was crippled. I've received the same generic responses directly from ncsoft.

Oh, if you can't check your statement online, you can always call them and ask if there have been any credits applied to your account.

I just checked my credit card activity online and determined that ncsoft refunded me the $100 or so dollars for expansions two days ago.

And they didn't even bother to drop me a note saying that this had been done. This is so ridiculously irresponsible I don't know if I even want to buy the expansions again. I'm just completely disgusted with them.

To update my situation concerning my previous post. My online bank statement just updated a few hours earlier. Yesterday NC soft refunded me for my purchases of my four character slots, GOTY upgrade, and GW:EN preorder. NCsoft also charged my credit card for $35 for the purchase of GW:EN that I made a few hours before it went live. I haven't recieved any further updates via email from support. I can only guess that some kind of error either removed or invalidated key codes for already purchased merchandise on some accounts, and that NCsoft is going to proceed with refunds for these purchases on an individual basis. So for anyone out there that is having this problem and hasn't sent a support ticket, I encourage you to do so in order to get your money back. I plan on re-purchasing all that stuff again once I get home, I want my spare mule slots back

I have the same issue as most of you all here. My only is for the GWEN pre-order and a slot but I kept my slot. I was playing the other night with 11 of 10 (look here )
but today I noticed a refund on my bank statement from NC Soft but was wondering if we get our GWEN pre orders back and yes I have sent in a ticket hopefully I can have an answer. I mostly just want the Hourglass Staff as it is perfect to create for free and give to a hero as they just need a 20/10 +15 energy weapon plus they look cool with them.

So, I'm home now, I logged onto Guild Wars to re-spend my nice little refund from NCsoft to get back the items that disappeared off my account, and I can no longer make any payments to my Guild Wars account. I get a Code=1751073 every time I try. I have tried to use my debit card, my primary credit card that I've used for all my Guild Wars stuff, and my secondary credit card that I've never used for anything from Anet/NCsoft. They all get the exact same code. So while I'm very happy to get my money back, I'm kinda bummed that I can't spend it to recover anything I lost. I've updated my support ticket, hopefully I'll get a response on this new problem soon. Also, in regards to your question Panix, I do NOT have my GW:EN preorder on my account anymore. I have the refund for it back in my account, and the key code from it says it's already in use when I try to add it to my account again (had to try), so I'd be inclined to say that if you lost your GW:EN preorder you won't be able to recover it. If you really want it the only two options that I can see is to wait and pray that NCsoft will somehow bring it back (unlikely if you recieve a refund for it) or you'll hafta go on a scavenger hunt to find somone selling a physical preorder. I intend to start my scavenger hunt tomorrow, since I'm rather fond of that Hourglass Staff too

In all fairness, that code might be a type of temporary 'account hold' to prevent the situation getting more complicated for those involved. In all honesty, I'd wait a couple days or so for everything to get settled, or at least some answers to be communicated.

yep , that's the bug.

When you buy GWEN at the online store , all your previous purchases from the online store is canceled from your GW account and refunded on your credit card or whatever was used. You keep all the account keys you got elsewhere like a retail key code, key code from a magazine for a mini-pet ... but all the keys obtained online are caceled and refunded.

in my case i have Prophecies , factions , nightfall and GWEN.

i have lost all the stuff at the online store , 3 extra slot , GWEN pre-order , GW edition of the year upgrade.


update : its impossible for me now to log into my master PlayNC account. I think they have stopped everything to prevent more damage.
