So I was checking out the different purchase option and the rates/dollar I can get with each option... and accidentally clicked purchase(in order to see the details I had to open the page XD) and well... purchased a smaller package that had a worse GP/dollar than some other options...
And due to a previous purchase and a bonded paypal account, there was no confirmation of any kind and it just happened...
It's not a big problem because I like the game anyway and the payment wasn't big by default so I'll let it go. But it's a bit on the annoying side.
So a confirmation page would be nice~


On a side note, the various payment option seems weird to me. Apparently you can buy (via facebook payment system or the GP buying place) 550 fb credit for 50 dollars, which translate to 550+40 GP. (or more if you save the 50 fb credit for later and use bigger purchase orders)
On the other hand, If I clicked the last option (550 GP for 500 facebook credits) I can only get 550 GP for the 50 dollars (and not the 40 extra)
The latter is what I used last time, which means unless I'm misunderstanding something.... I'm now 40 GP short cause I didn't check all the options last time
I understand 1 big payment should give more than many smaller ones(where total USD spent is equal), but they are both one single transaction 50 dollar purchase, I think they should have the same value. I think this needs to be looked into XD

I like the game, or I won't be making GP purchases~ so please make things seem.... logical~

once the blue and white popup window comes up, it's all facebook from there... GL has no control over it at that point...

To get the best value for your money, never purchase facebook credits in-game for a direct money-to-GP purchase... Facebook assumes you don't want a remaining balance if you do it that way, and thus doesn't give you as much of a bonus... instead... in the facebook sidebar on the right, the very rightmost icon at the top... hover over it to see a dropdown popup... the top line shows your current facebook credit balance... click Get More right there to get the popup with the best value bonuses... then go into GL to purchase GP with your current FBC balance

yeah i know... i would at least like to be transferred to paypal to put in my password and confirm on paypal's site for each purchase....

the first time it went through without sending me to paypal really ticked me off


it's like............ a store running your card as credit when you specifically said debit because you prefer to enter your pin#...
anyone can simply sign a signature and walk away from a store with what they purchased...
i don't use my card at fast food restaurants anymore because they never run as debit (even though there's a number pad on the cc machines at mcdonalds) and they don't even ask for a signature nowadays

I know , I have see I.D. on my card and even the stores that you don't run the card your self then never ask anymore.(The only person I don't mind not asking anymore is this 1 girl at family video with a photostatic memory , but I half fear here using my card from memory)
