What about foreign US foreign residents if they have problems with the sec. question?

I am really concerned; the only answer LL have gave to the problem of not having the “security question” is that famous phone call this Monday. So I guess only our American pals have a possible solution so far. I really wonder what will going to happen to people living outside US.

Well if the Americans friends are very angry to have to wait until Monday at least they have a possible solution and a date, we don’t have yet any of both.

Europeans can call the support too.

We 'Mericans don't care 'bout dem farinars.

I remember someone in another thread was pointing out that many Japanese users, thanks to a partial language barrier, didn't know what to put into the security question field ... something to that effect.

Meh.

the question is, for all foreigners when they call the toll free number, is it really toll free for them?

Probably not. But who cares!

You should live here in the first place if you want to access the American internet. and as a bonus for moving you can get Christianity for free and with a small upgrade we offer Domestic Wiretapping at a very affordable rate.

If you don’t live in UK, Canada and Australia it’s NOT toll free so I wonder who will pay the phone call? Of course I will not going to do it, in such case this is the end of Second Life for me.

I will not start a new avatar when I wasted some money and so many time in my last one and all that totally lost in such stupid way.

I got in fine.

International rates: 18,12 EuroCents per minute... guess one will be lucky to wait less than half an hour.

Total 5,43 Euros

LL You owe me one free month of premium!

lol

They owe YOU because YOU forgot your password security question? hmmm... I dont think that will hold up in court will it?

Incidently... I live in Australia...and have ALSO forgotten my security question...lol

Well that was a helpful cut&paste job if ever there was one.

I don't see the FAQ post about phone credits though. Will you be paying the Brits in L$ or USD? And can they round the minutes up to the nearest half-hour?

Not to mention Coming Attractions -- trials at which you can be convicted and executed based on evidence you're not allowed to see!

Regarding international rates, check out Skype -- it's cheap.

Yeh that's right, let's bash the one LL employee who is trying to be helpful

I'll go out on a limb here and say the number of times I've ever found Jeska anything but snide is few and far between.

I knew there was a valid reason I disliked you...

I KNEW you couldn't smell sarcasm if it was coming out of Kevn's ass after burrito night!

No, they owe me thanks to the "No security question on file" bug.

If you use Skype, you can call US 800 numbers for free.

Touch-tone support is a bit patchy, so better hope they don't use some crummy phone menu without a default "connect to a human" action if you don't type anything.

Wasn't this sentence the point of Jeska's cut and paste? When the phone numbers were shown above to point out that worlwide calls are not toll-free, this sentence was not included.

Presumably the shortest call length anyone could make is the time it takes to speak your account name and phone number.

Thank you very much, but actually if you scroll a bit back I already cut and pasted that.

Now my question is, I don’t live in a free toll country and NO WAY I will pay an international phone call; then I lost my account?

You can also use Skype which is free to download and the Linden number is free to call when using Skype.

( See we even got skype over here too - amazing huh - next we are gonna try for fire and possibly running water )

As the kid said on a post-9/11 TV show about learning tolerance and gaining an understanding of other cultures: "You shouldn't shoot people wearing turbans. They might be Americans."

I don't call that "affordable". I can wiretap you for a far better rate than the Bush administration, plus I will throw in free flight blacklisting as well.

There is the alternative of emailing [email]support@secondlife.com[/email] - this goes to the same people.
