Unhappy Membership Days... Make them last LONGER!

Ok... Before my school's summer vacation, I bought a POTCO 3 month card.. I got to play for about a week but then my family, and I went on vacation to Las Vegas... for vacation... when we got back I was getting for a new school to go to, and I was really studying, and we were also shopping for my school supplies...

So I totally forgot about my POTCO account...

and I log in... just to see $30.00 bucks go to waist..

So my questions is....

"Do you think POTCO should NOT count the membership days you are not online?"

Sorry to hear that happen, but in my opinion, no. There could be something that came up, but the card is a 3 month card and just that, time offline and online doesn't matter.

No, cause if they changed it it would probably cost more money for a membership.

Even so, that would be difficult to do. There would more than likely be some issues with it, accidentally counting days you've been on, counting days off, etc. Memberships are fine the way they are at the moment, they've been that way since day one, no reason to really change them now. Just make sure that when you use a code, you will be available to play during that time period.

I would have to say no. As much as that would be awesome, it simply doesn't make any sense for Disney financially. People who would normally run out of membership time and renew, wouldn't.. causing Disney to miss out on money. Plus, if you did do that it becomes complicated: Would hours add up to days and that is how you count your month? Or would simply logging in count as one day? Nice idea though.. just don't see it happening.

No they shouldn't change anything, those days must count. It's like asking for milk to last longer in the fridge. If it has an expiration date then use it before the expiration date. If you forget about the product's expiration date then it's your responsibility. I think it's ridiculous to ask for such a thing. Use it or lose it, mate.

Well, I wouldn't call it rediculous. They can keep track of how many double rep hours we have from events like the Father's day quest...it would be like paying for air time on your phone card. However, I dont' see them doing it, as cool as it would be if they did. Ya know, couldn't hurt to send D the suggestion.

I've never thought of it but its a good idea, although Disney really wants money, defeats the purpose....But i would like it

Well, that ain't gonna work with Disney.

You ask that question, Big D is gonna give you a polite NO answer, which is their way of saying "We like money".

I said "No...not really". If it had 3 days, and those only count when you are on, you could be unlimited for months. I'm basic now so I'm not saying basics don't deserve free unlimited.
