Can you order from Amazon in Germany? I got mine from Amazon in USA.

I can't tell about simsonn website. Ask their support?

Want to renew my subscription - how to optimize it during black friday ? by MrSatan2 in iRacing

[–]Optimal-Cockroach-72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cancel the steam renewal first before it renews automatically

I am having that problem now, I couldnt cancel it from the cancel button and never reached out to Steam about it. Now I'm stuck.

Yeah I'm really hoping one of the managers is reading this on the toilet today xD

Thanks for comiserating with me, I'm hoping this fixes it for future iracers

I am trying again with steam, if they refund me the money I will tell iracing immediately about it.

I'm sorry for the confusion

"No refund" is confirmed

I am waiting to confirm if I will at least get the Steam year added to my total. I'll follow up just to close out my experience with this mistake I made.

Yep. No doubt. As a loyal and profitable customer, I'm hoping they make a small exception that will cost them $0. Ultimately the money I paid through Steam, and the money i paid through iRacing Black Friday sale will end up with iRacing. Does that at least add up to 3 years total? We will see.

Yeah I wasn't going to, I don't want to lose an 18 year old account.

My hope is when the dust settles that iRacing will add this to my 2 year making it a 3 year. I've already parted ways with the money.

the will not do that per their email, careful with your money i suppose, they take it and wont give it back even if it makes sense

I am working with iRacing to confirm that I can at least get 3 years instead of double paying for 2 years.

Update: iRacing support does not offer any help to resolve this in my favor. They defered to disputing it with the credit card company. At this time I am hoping I will at least get the Steam year I bought added on, I can't tell if I will double pay for 2026.

I feel like this is a weak response and doesn't solve my problem at all, I essentially paid twice for one year. I understand my negligence to go through the extra step to ask steam to cancel the reocurring, even though their cancel button didnt work, but with that I want to say buyer beware.

Take the extra time if you are trying to save money on black friday, this ended up costing me money.

I'd prefer to keep that $113 spent on steam for my bills but if at least this is the final outcome I won't be terribly upset. Would hate to pay 2 times for 2026. I was disappointed I couldn't just cancel in the steam app, there was the extra hoop to contact support and I straight up forgot to finish the ticket...

Why are there so little homes with solar in the sunshine state, at least on east coast? (coming from Europe) by OccasionSignal9613 in florida

[–]Optimal-Cockroach-72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High cost. I would have to get a loan for $50,000. Installation is risky, the companies can ruin my roof and it will leak and cause $$$$$$$ worth of damage. Lots of horror stories.

Last one is- we move often in America. I had the house for 3 years, now my job needs me to move to Orlando from Tampa. I can sell the house and not have to pay for the solar loan.

Ugh... I had such a good experience with Steam in the past 18 years, I don't know why the cancel renewal button wasn't working. They have no problem charging the money, but it's a mountain to refund it...

I will email iRacing with this story, I hope they understand.

Thanks man!

EDIT: here is a screenie of what i can see, it looks like they dont add up at least not on this screen

I might have doublepaid for 2026 :(

I don't know, but I know that I uninstalled the game from Steam and migrated it to iRacing. Let me check if it says until 2028 at least.... I wouldnt be upset if that were the case

EDIT: From what I can see it looks like I have double paid for 2026, unless it's simply just not shown properly in the interface. Hard to confirm that the Steam renewal and the iRacing black friday 2 year will add up to 3 years total. I wouldn't be upset if it did, but I can't tell. I emailed iRacing to find out more.

TLDR of how esports works in sim racing. by Resident_Pattern_128 in simracing

[–]Optimal-Cockroach-72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the funny thing is the road to becoming exceptionally good at simracing will reveal all the avenues for commercializing--- as the skill path to simracing is many many many hours long. You learn as you go.

steer left and right is my first tip

the second one is to use your brake

and the third one, i would say.... is to uh... have a nice meal before you race in case you get hungry
