I am looking at purchasing the Everquest 2, complete collection that has 60 days free on the account. I do not have a bank account or credit card, so if I purchase the game, will I be unable to use the 60 days free?

it does require a billing method to get the free time, look into refillable credit cards or the game cards

I'm not looking to get game cards yet and I stay away from credit card. I just want to get the game and play for a couple months before I decide to go full bore into the game. Way to get screwed.

[Removed for Content], Pretty sure that the box states Subscription needed. Yes, you will get 60 days free with the Complete Collection, but you need to prove that you can in fact pay a subscription (thank you spammers and plat sellers!).

You may be able to contact support directly and see what they can do for you. If you wanted to try the game free, perhaps you shoudl try the 14 day trial first? The complete collection works still to give the 60 days free after that, but instead of an extra 60 days you will be given the 60 days minus your trial period.

That would be the best option, in my opinion, if you wanted to try the game without entering any billing info.

While I can certainly understand the frustation, every MMO with a subscription fee works like that these days due to the amount of fraud that gets attempted through an online service. Let me know if you have any questions.
