    I just got ripped off by this site http://uk.online-gold.de/ I ordered 12 hours ago and have not received my code. I have emailed numerous times (the only option in contact) and have had no reply. Don't want anyone else to get ripped off. Does anyone know if there is anything I can do?

    How did you pay ? Either way entering a dispute with pay pal or a charge back with a credit card is shady at best when it comes to digital goods.

    Checked your spam folder yeah? May sound silly but the odd time I've had e-tailer's stuff get caught by filters.

    Contact your bank and see about intiating a charge back

    Never heard of these guys. How much were they charging for 12 months? (Can't get on it here)

    If you're still looking for a sub I got a 13 month code for €37.79 from here on Sunday, emailed to me about 15 mins after payment.

    Ended up getting a three month code off ebay. Will use that site when the three months are up. Thank you :-)
