How do you pay for your eve time do you buy in euros or $
do you just pay right off or use time cards
$ & Euros same price? why?

Subscription via credit card.
Pounds are in the toilet compared to euros.

Lots more unemployed people with time on their hands to generate, plus lots of ISK-farmer buffs over the last year = lots more ISK supply
Lots of people suddenly realising, oh hey, massive economic depression, maybe I won't drop $300 so I can buy a couple of cap ships = lots less GTC supply.
Feel free to suggest that CCP force the already shrinking number of people willing to buy GTC to sell for ISK in order to reduce supply still further. (See also: Chairman Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, 20th century famines. |

This, except in SEK converted to €. (Also, technically, I'm not using a credit card — it's just a regular debit card connected to Visa). |

UK exchange rate has tanked against the dollar. Pay for sub via subscription through ccp in euros. It works out cheaper now.
GTC were changed before from 30/90 to a 60-day only when the dollar was tanking. CCP was loosing large amounts of income as their costs are in euros/pounds (servers in London etc), so they had to rectify it. Like it or not, CCP had to fix its finances.

Cos a few months ago, it was ú2.1 to the $1. Now its around ú1.4 to the $1, hence the prices of GTCs rise considerably. As for the Euro value i dunno, but thats the reason its alot more expensive for Brits than before.

Just worked it out quickly so may be wrong:
12 month - cc = 113.70 úpm = 9.48 úpd = 32p
6 month - cc = ú62.04 úpm = 10.34 úpd = 35p
60 day gtc = ú24.26 úpm = 12.13 úpd = 41p
úpm = pound per month
úpd = pound per day
Rough figures with todays exchange rate and the credit card payment doesn't take into account if your bank will charge any money for currency conversion.
Would be good if anyone has more accurate figures?

Either i don't understand your math at all or your pounds per day numbers are way off.

Price in EUR includes VAT (24.5%), which must be paid only by EU residents.
