Upgrade Trial Key Online

Please fill out the credit card information below to upgrade your World of Warcraft account. Once you complete the form, make sure the checkbox at the bottom of the page is checked, and click finish, you will be charged a $19.99 activation fee. Your upgraded account will remove all trial restrictions and you will immediately receive a FREE 30 days of World of Warcraft gametime. NOTE: If you choose to upgrade your account online, you do NOT need to buy a retail copy of the game. Your online upgrade will provide you with a normal retail account. At the end of that free period, your account will be charged a recurring subscription fee according to the payment method you signed up for when you created your trial account.

Does this mean, at the end of the trial, you will be charged the $19.99 for the next 30 days or something? - But will this carry on for the next month or will it cancel untill you get your next 30 days for the $19.99..?

it means at the end of your trial, you cant play anymore. but you can put in a CC for reoccurring payments, or use game cards... they cant charge you on a credit card you never entered. if you continue, its 19 bucks for the full activation+1 month, but after that its normal monthly payments

Thanks man, and by monthly payments, you mean $20 right?

if you pay 1 month at a time its 15, if you buy a year, the price/month drops considerably

Thanks for your help hoax, but i have done all the payment crap and then this poped up: This account is not eligible for the direct online upgrade option. Please contact our billing and account services by email (billing@blizzard.com) or via phone (1-800-59-BLIZZARD) for more information.
I dont think the world of warcraft is for me...

i think it has something to do with you not having burning crusade. if you cant play at all something is wrong, because you can play wow without it.....call em up and ask

if none of that works for you, just go out and buy the game, you lose your 10 day trial progress, but other than that, no different
