Today Laura was balancing the checkbook against the website listing of charges (Isn’t the internet great?) and noticed a $14.99 charge from “Turbine Entertainment” was pending.

If you don’t know, Turbine Entertainment is the group behind Dungeons & Dragons Online and Lord of the Rings: Online.  I played DDO for a few months right after release, but I canceled it long ago (Early July by the email).  I even got into the LotR:O Alpha, but only played it once. So why were they charging me?  Someone steal my account information?  Someone steal my Credit Card number?  Or just a technical goof.

Well, it took a while to finally find a phone number (Good luck finding one anywhere on Turbine’s Site).  The number I finally found is in the Account Information area after you login (Which confirmed that my account was closed, still) and, for anyone who needs it, is 781-407-4020.  The automated attendant starts off with “If you are calling in regard to a pending charge to your account” and goes on to explain, basically, that this was an accident and they’re working on reversing all the charges.

Whew.. Had me scared for a bit.  I normally wouldnt’ post something as trivial as this, but I know alot of fellow former DDO junkies read this page (Hey RAIDer’s) and I just wanted to spread the word.
