I have a question about price is it $49.95 + base cost or just a flat $49.95?

Standard J'Lo'ism (could've sworn I had a plat + basic listing on the bills prior to my TF signup, but I didn't). The extra charges are still absorbed automatically into your upgrade, however, so if you had basic and 2 extra slots you wouldn't end up with plat with 2 extra slots. Instead you'd end up with 26 slots in Plat and 16 in Prime.

As was stated it's $49.95 total. That includes the Prime fee, Premiuim upgrade and Plat upgrade. TF comes along as part of the Plat upgrade. As Plat players we have access to the Test Instance but it's limited to using our Prime characters. Normal Test Instance conditions apply.
I had wondered why they let us go so long in the Survival category and even why it was there in the first place.
A lot of people express concern about having to start over. It's a valid concern but one most of us struggled with too. I played Prime for over 10 years before I switched and haven't regretted it.
I occasionally go back and play my Prime characters. Splitting time gets tough and switching back and forth can be rather jarring to the senses. You will probably find yourself feeling more out of the loop going back into Prime than into Plat for any length of absence in playing in a specific instance.

>>TF comes along as part of the Plat upgrade.
Billing's not that inept that it'd let a plat player later sign up for TF using the wrong signup method and then continue to charge them for 2 years according to that wrong signup method. They'd look at the acccount and either wonder why a plat player was wanting to sign up and pay for a separate TF subscription instead of taking advantage of his freebie, or they would simply convert it to the freebie the player is legitimately supposed to get.
Since my billing history clearly shows Billing has been happily and industriously charging me an extra $14.95 since I signed up for TF, it's pretty obvious that TF is not free for Plat subscribers. Assuming I'm incorrect on this part, I'm sure Bubba will get me a large refund or some other form of equivalent compensation because he's a CE-savvy nice guy who doesn't want to drive away a paying customer of good standing (look at the smiley if it's not obvious this is a joke-->). :D

From the following link on my account:
DragonRealms: The Fallen
Settle the score! The Fallen is a no-holds-barred version of DragonRealms where players are encouraged to walk however they please and carry very big sticks. The Fallen subscription is an add-on to DragonRealms that requires agreeing to an additional disclaimer and is free to Platinum subscribers!

>Hate to tell you this, but Plat does indeed come with one Fallen slot.
If you're TF + premium you get 16 slots in prime and TF.
For some reason, purchasing a character slot is instance specific. Total rip-off, imo.
I'm surprised that a plat account only gets one TF character slot, that sounds wrong.

I have a plat subscription and don't have any TF characters (for now):
You have a DragonRealms: The Fallen Premium subscription. There are 16 unused extra characters on your account.
Looks to be the same as I have on the prime side of the account.

Hrm. I appologize. Just activated the Fallen portion of my Plat account and sure enough, 16 slots. It said that as a Plat subscriber my access would be free... followed immediately by a second line saying in addition to my $14.95 base I'd be charged and additional $5.00 I'm assuming that this is just left over messaging for folks who add on piece-meal. I'll let you know if I end up getting billed beyond the $49.95 for my Plat account.

I think if it did charge you, it would have given you a prorated billing for the TF part of your subscription for the rest of the month that would have been charged to your credit card instantly (something you would have to confirm that was OK).
It's what has happened to me when I choose to join premium, plat, or fallen in the middle of my billing cycle.

I agree. THis has been my experience as well, but I was hesitant to open my fingers and spit out disinformation again before being totally sure.

Just as official confirmation, Plat comes with a free TF subscription. It will LOOK like its charging you but you won't be charged.
As someone said, if by some weird chance you are charged, call Billing and they will straighten it out.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
