I do in fact have a question and all about a gaming subscription WoW account (please no mention about WAREZ or Serial Keys Because I'm not here for that!) Thinking about giving WoW a try again.
I little stumped about the subscription system works, i know the game default monthly
follow ups per month i do know of the 12.99 A Month subscription.
12.99
= On Month (already aware of)
13.00 or $41.97
= Three Months.
So does this mean if i get a 3 month subscription i will get charged every three months of
$13.00 or $41.97? If anyone could help me out so i could understand what's going n payment wise.
thanks in advance happy holidays.

FYI: Here are your WoW subscription options available through setting up the subscription with Blizzard:
Automatically charge me every month USD 14.99/mo (USD 14.99 billed every month)
Automatically charge me every 3 months USD 13.99/mo (USD 41.97 billed every 3 months) Save USD 12.00 / Year
Automatically charge me every 6 months USD 12.99/mo (USD 77.94 billed every 6 months) Save USD 24.00 / Year - BEST VALUE

Ah! now I see, so wait a minute, all of this was just an easy math problem?
So let's say if I changed my mind and wanted the 6-month subscription
12.99 X 6 = 77.94
So This is how much I spent on total for a 6-month subscription of $77.94?
Thanks for the help guys, one more thin i don't own any WoW games at the moment i own the
Starter version, do i really need to purchase the $19.99 full version of WoW and then purchase
Legions? Because I may just get it today if I have enough money. Sorry to be a little trouble, just
want to understand everything before hitting the "Purchase Button"
Thank you for your time!

Basically you paid for 3 months. If you change to a 6 month sub, after your time expires you will be charged based on the 6 month period in full. During that time, if you change or cancel your sub, you still have the time left that you already paid for, and the new price or cancellation will happen at the end.

Hey buddy thanks for getting back with me, I didn't purchase the 3 months, I was pretty much speculating, on what plan i should get, but the 6 months is said to be the best deal. This new account has never been linked to an actual real WoW account, my user and password from years ago gotten hacked long ago and now fast forward to the future i am starting over for the better. But now I think I have decided and made my mind up, i want to try and give the 6 months a try because I am disabled, I don't work or drive anywhere and my life is kind of depressing. Sorry for going off topic.
So if I get the full game for $9.99, the purchase the 6 month plan, I will be billed 12 dollars? Sorry for having a hard time understanding :( or is it the first 6 months i get build 70 dollars? Dont know if i brought it up but do i have to buy the full wow games and then the legion expansion pack or is it a standalone that works without WoW basic.
I really want to try out the new expansion pack heard alot of new things that are all great about the game.

Say you buy the game (basic game or basic + Legion) on December 25. You then have time until January 25. Until that time, you can change your subscription any way you like. You can set it to cancelled/no subscription, 1 month, 3, month, or 6 months. Until January 25, nothing will happen, no matter what subscription you have.
On January 25, when you subscription hits 0 seconds left, you will automatically renew if you have a subscription, or your game time will end. So if you have no subscription, you will only have access to the limited free-to-play options available.
If you have a 1-month subscription, you will be charged $15, and your time will expire on February 25.
If you have a 3-month subscription, you will be charged $42, and your time will expire on April 25.
If you have a 6-month subscription, you will be charged $78, and your time will expire on July 25.
If you decide around early March that you want to quit, and you cancel your subscription, that cancellation will take place when your next payment would be due (meaning March 25 for a 1-month that was renewed on February 25, or April or July if you are on the 3-month or 6-month plan). You will never be charged in installments for your time. You get charged at the beginning of every subscription renewal.
The reason they show you the $/month that each plan has is to give you a similar number to compare to. Essentially, it keeps you from having to solve for X. If you plan on playing less than 3 months, or you plan to go month-to-month to see if you want to keep playing, then the 1-month is best. The longer subscription models will save you money if you play for that long.
