I know I shouldn’t take time to post this, but sometimes things happen that makes you want to air your opinions and blow off some steam. Those of you who knows me or read my blog regularily knows I’m having financial troubles in RL. I have had to close down everything that cost anything in SL, sold my land, and I have downgraded my premium account. Now LL have taken tier money from me. I have a basic account and can’t even use the land I have payed for.
I thought that if I sold my land, withdraw my contribution to the land group and downgraded my account I wouldn’t have to pay tier, but obviously I was wrong. Those money was drawn from my bank account and even though most ppl wouldn’t think it’s a lot of money, to me it is. Now I won’t have enough money to pay for one of my RL bills. And I will end up paying a penalty fee for being late with it. All for a tier that I can’t use. I have lost my store but still have to pay for the land.
Now I thought that I might be able to talk some senses into LL so I tried to file a ticket as I’ve done in the past. That wasn’t possible however since I don’t have a premium account. Basic account can only get help with simple stuff that I already know about. Someone once told me that poor people shouldn’t play SL and it seems like it was true. I only hope that I won’t have to pay anything next month as well. What can I do against the mighty LL people? Nothing of course.
It is possible to open a ticket as a basic account holder. Just follow the instructions on this page: https://support.secondlife.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=4417&task=knowledge&questionID=5679
However, it sounds like you haven’t reduced your tier to zero on this page:

Thanks. I have tried to file a ticket, but only a few types of issues is can be adressed as a basic account holder. My type of problem isn’t on the list.
Oh and I missed reducing my tier level before I downgraded, but I can’t do it now. Every time I try they say I need to have a premium account to be able to change my tier levels. So I have no idea what to do.
