I don't think refunds for purchases is stealing, if you buy something and aren't satisfied per the rules of your credit card you are eligible for a refund. But I'm not talking about stealing stuff at all. This is actually very concerning to me I just wanted to know if people actually get discount itunes codes and cards and if they actually work.
To answer the question, yes! But I buy them for myself from Costco and spend my money and know that they are legit!
If you purchase a discount card from a legitimate vendor, then you're fine. If you buy it from a friend in person, then you're fine. If you buy it from a random guy in another country online, then you're not fine. If you're still not understanding this, then I think you just want people to tell you to go ahead and buy the bootleg units that you know are fraudulent.
You’re asking ways, and khan and myself are telling you.
Correct, a refund is fine. But if someone takes one iTunes account and buys 20 odins, then asks for a refund, on all 2k, and does that on another account.
They aren’t making sense to you because you haven’t been through it.
And the phone spoofing, doesn’t make sense because you haven’t seen it done.
But all these ways are shady, and probably ways they are trying to sell to you.
There is NO WAY, that someone legitimately has 5k in iTunes cards laying around, and is trying to dump them for ~20% face value? They could sell them on eBay for double that. Think about it.
I was actually just asking for people's experience as I've never used itunes gift cards/codes before and not sure how they work. Everyone else started chiming in off topic.
based on recent events, it appears you'd only get temp banned for 7 days, but still get to keep all the rewards you earned ... unless Kabam takes further action.
It’s not off topic. These “random off topic” things we are talking about, are ways that people give discounted iTunes credits. Exactly like you’re asking about sir.
Shame, isn’t it. This company needs to look at their cøre values and make some tough decisions.
We are not chiming in off topic. You asked if we thought it was a good idea or if we had done it and the majority of people have told you that it has significant risks associated with it, which is in essence completely on topic!
Absolutely. This is the type of stuff that kills games. You let the whales cheat horribly but make everyone else compete with them for top prizes, ranks, titles, etc. You should believe in your product and know that losing a few big spenders that aren't following the rules is worth it in the long run.
Can they make the right choice?
Or will they let this stuff slide?
Really hope they do more.
Everyone knows it’s not right.
After that little waster egg planted. The problem is those who did it were some of the biggest whales this game has. That’s why it’s so hard for them to do.
Do you think they will actually perma-ban? I don’t. I really don’t.
Also, can you link to your Reddit post plz?
Vocês têm algo a acrescentar?
English:
Reading the posts and seeing the facts inside the game, I was able to understand that it is possible to buy gift cards for my Apple ID and use them in units. I also interpreted the rules of the game and the posts published here that it is possible to request a refund from Apple if I am not satisfied with the product received in the game after purchasing units with my credit card.
Do you have something to add?
That interpretation is totally incorrect. And in regards to refunds we were saying no. Do not do that. If you refund on Android you will actually get banned.
Sou usuário iOS. Não utilizo sistema Android. Por favor, seja mais específico. Pois pelas regras da Apple se eu não estiver satisfeito com o produto que recebi, posso solicitar o reembolso sem poder sofrer qualquer tipo de constrangimento ou retaliação.
You are discussing illegal activity which is not what I'm talking about so it is off topic.
If a deal seems far too good to be true... most likely it is.
Actually, you asked something very specific:
I buy iTunes gift cards all the time when they are on sale for less than face value. Costco sometimes sells them for 5-10% off, and sometimes Best Buy sells them for up to 20% off (usually a Black Friday special around Christmas). None of these activities is remotely illegal, and even asking the question would be a little weird.
But your question is weird. Someone out of the blue offers to buy units for you for less than what it would cost you to do so because they are in possession of, or can somehow get, iTunes gift cards for half off the value (or less). That sounds extremely shady. What's more, a whole bunch of people got banned recently for activity which was rumored to be related to similar activity. Somehow, I don't think this is a coincidence.
If you honestly believe that the iTunes gift cards are legitimate, and Santa Claus just happens to have you on his nice list, then go for it. But anyone offering me an iTunes gift card for half price is someone I would be extremely suspicious of. Someone offering to directly use an iTunes gift card to buy something for my MCOC account for half price is someone I would not allow anywhere near my MCOC account or for that matter my wallet.
Basically, if someone walked up to me on the street and offered to pay my credit card bill for me for half price, I would just keep walking. And I would assume anyone who took them up on the offer was an idiot.
You can ask Apple for a refund and Apple won't retaliate against you. However, that refund comes out of the pockets of the company you're asking for a refund ultimately from, and they have the legal right to refuse service for anyone, just like McDonalds. I've had experience with MMO game operators banning people for using their credit card companies to reverse charges just because they are unsatisfied with the product. In response, the game company terminated their game accounts. You have the right to ask for a refund. The company has a right to not have you as a customer. You take this risk when you demand refunds. Sometimes nothing happens. Sometimes something happens. It is your choice.
If this really is the case with multiple members of 2+ of the biggest alliances in the game then Kabam values $ over company reputation. Maybe lack of consequences for spenders is why there are so many MCOC players offering their services on EBay and other platforms for clearing RTTL/ROL or becoming Uncollected.
Kabam also says that sharing accounts can get you banned. Brian Grant posted a video on getting an arena steak of just over 1,000 from grinding 3 days straight (https://youtu.be/xwNqITsHYEk), yet there are some players who hit arena streaks of 1,400+ multiple times a month.
Lack of consistency with consequences for violating terms of service means cheaters will continue to cheat.
