I've sent a complaint to the Office of Fair Trading (UK equivalent of America's national consumer rights government body) regarding the removal of in-game content (vehicle BPO) that I have purchased from Sony, which is now being removed by a third party who was not party to the purchase agreement, and who is infringing on my consumer rights. I have made a complaint under the following circumstances, failure to comply with Sales of Goods Act 1979, as well as a complaint regarding underhand business tactics and poor customer service.
I would also like you all to note a little extract taken from moneysavingexpert.com
Understanding the law If you've got a dispute going on, it's important not just to know your rights, but to understand how and why they work.
Every time you buy something, be it a mobile phone from a mate or a week in Cuba from a travel agent, you make a contract with the seller. What does this contract really mean?
Both you and the other party agree to terms and conditions. The seller has agreed to provide your 'statutory rights'.
*Note the phrase the seller has agreed to provide your statutory rights, not a third party developer, producer, manufacturer, burger van owner or car salesman.
I encourage everyone to exercise their consumer rights and seek legal advice against CCP, and do not be afraid to take action If you get the go-ahead From your legal advisor or consumer rights group, as I certainly will be.

The purchase agreement was with Sony and not CCP, therefore If Sony were to be the ones removing my BPOs then it would be a different matter, but seeing as its not, and CCP are the ones interfering with something that they were not party to, I am well within my rights as a consumer to lodge a complaint and seek legal advice.

Yeah... so... say you win your case and CCP backs down. Say they even email you and say, "You know what? You have a point. We're going to let you, and you alone, keep the BPO that we'd be refunding to everyone else."
Well, congratulations.
Because you will be in the possession of a BPO module THAT DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
They're only removing the BPOs for modules classes that are being removed from the game, folks. Your whining is for nothing whatsoever. And they're paying you back a pretty penny in AUR for it.
Also, ready yer damn EULA.

I love how people are complaining about the removal of four militia vehicle module blueprints. I'm beginning to think that some of the people on these forums don't know how to read without being blinded by some strange all consuming rage at nothing.
By the way, for these particular items you bought the Aurum from Sony and then used the Aurum as credits for these items so... good luck

EULA does NOT exempt Sony, CCP, or any other company from UK and EU law, especially when said company advertises an item with a limited offer (aka BPOs) with a big promotional offer, only to then remove said items offered in the promotion less than 3 months later. THAT is an underhand business tactic, exploitation and more than worthy of a complaint to the office of fait trading and consumer rights groups.

Part of my rights as a consumer is to request a refund of equal measure if I am not satisfied with the terms offered when one party to the purchase agreement decides to change it. As a consumer I am legally entitled to request a CASH refund of equal value If CCP decides that it does not want to honor the original agreement. I suguest you educate yourself a little more on consumer rights, and stop banging your head against EULAs.

I don't need to pay for an expensive lawyer, as I'm a UK and EU citizen. You see thacts the great tthing about not being an American, it's that my government actually protects my rights and the Office of Fair Trading can fight my claim for me for free, because after all, the British Government works for the people.

LAV BPOs, Vehicle Module BPOs, it makes no difference, I am exercising my legal rights as a consumer against a company that wishes to infringe upon them, by not honoring the original purchase agreement and not offering a CASH refund of equal value, of which I am legally entitled to.

So what leg are you standing on?
This post here where CCP is telling you to "HURRY UP AND BUY"
https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1420895#post1420895
The fact that they made a dev post encouraging you to buy items that not a couple of months later they were going to remove. It is misleading to the customer and basically a swindle perpetrated by CCP to create a massive influx of money that had people known then that this would happen would probably not have made a purchase of AUR to buy said items. BAD BUSINESS CCP! I hope his suit has a leg and actually goes somewhere. |
