Did you not realise that Sterling has crashed against the US$? The collapse of Sterling thanks to Britain's 'exit-the-EU' thing means you'll be paying more for imported goods. Get used to it.
The thing with PLEX is that, at it's core, it's a (very effective) mechanism to fight RMT bots and the like. If players know they can spend real world $$$ on a PLEX they can then convert to ISK, why would they go through the (huge) risks of buying ISK from an RMT site and run the permaban gauntlet?

Ori Hunter wrote:i quote directly from ccp ; What is PLEX? PLEX is an in-game item that can be used to pay for your subscription without using more traditional payment methods. By using PLEX, you can pay for your game time simply by playing the game. so they advertise 9.99 but if your dumb you can pay 16.99 for the same service !! so 2 different prices for the same service Not really. Because you can buy Plex ingame you can keep your account running without using RL money but you need to generate the amount of ISK to buy the Plex. On the other hand if you buy Plex with RL money you get a lot of ISK ingame. Depends what you need more: ISK or gametime.
PLEX has more uses then a subscription (MCT, remoddeling your Toon etc) and that's why you pay more for Plex. Think of a Smart and a Combi. A Smart and a Combi will both get you somewhere but with the Combi you can also transport your whole family or transport big things: That's why it's more expansive then a Smart. If you need just to get somewhere the Smart is cheaper but if you have a family it's not the best choice. |

Does this apply to existing subscriptions?

AFAIK CCP haven't altered the price due to exchange rates since at least 2009 (as long as I've been playing), they're hardly likely to do it it now.
As for your opinion on Brexit, you might want to keep that to yourself, discussion of politics is forbidden on the forums.

But political stuff rule does get enforced while trolling well, not so much. I have a personal theory where the ISsD like seeing where we can go with a lot of trolling and see the discussion still sometime brings something so they let a lot slide while political discussion never really gets anywhere anyway. |

My god, how can the OP not understand this.
The plex has a REDEEM option. The 30 days of time does not!
