Is it okay to drop All-Access for a few days?

    Just wondering whether I will lose on some/any rewards if I let my All-Access lapse for a bit?

    As a returning player I went All-Access on my main for a month with Krono, but not sure if it is important to keep the subscription current all the time.

    I might not play for the next few days, so I am not sure If I should renew immediately or not.

    My understanding is that you get 500SC for each month of All-Access but my account was still showing the starting freebie 100SC. If I revert to F2P status will I lose out on the SC bonus?

    Also, I am close to getting that summon Banker veteran reward, will dropping All-Access for a bit affect that?

    You have to claim the 500 SC each month to get it. I'm not exactly sure how the dating works, but seems to appear available around your renewal date. I don't think there is a month behind lag on it, but may seem like it depending on if the renewal date and 500 SC date appearing co-inside exactly or not.

    Vet rewards are time paid and that has passed (future payments don't count, until those time periods have passed), so yea, it will slow it down by however many days/weeks/months you go unsubscribed.

    Most other things will not change while not logged in while not paying. If you log in while not paying, you will notice the limitations of being Free-to-Play.

    Hopefully this helps some.

    I thought veteran awards accrued regardless of being being f2p or not. You sure Yther?

    I just logged into an account I made a year ago and never paid for. It has first year vet reward. They totally accrue regardless of subscription now. Yay!

    I was unaware they made it all the time now. I double checked my always been Silver account and it shows 2+ years so far also.

    Okay, so that's good news about Veteran Rewards.

    However, about 500 SC I am a bit confused, I see now this in my account info:

    Membership Reward 6/25/14 N/A Expired 500 SC Membership Grant
    ORDER 5/26/141 Krono Wallet EQ Non Recurring Membership

    I could have sworn there was no Membership Reward yesterday when I checked, how do I claim an expired Grant ?

    Tis a 30 day subscription. May is a 31 day month. You started your subscription on 5/26/14, good til 6/24/14=30days. So based on your post and the model, to earn the 500sc your account has to be active 31 days, gaining the ability to collect the 500sc on the start of the 2nd 30 day subscription month.

    But with how things cycle over, it likely was not collectible til a day or so later.
