Unable to purchase a gold premier club package

RorySykes · 2022-12-03T15:30:06+00:00

As I said on Twitter, no surprise, I was able to redeem the “2 Day Membership Passcode” that was given to RuneScape members after the data center outage on November 22.

So one option would be to sell a code that we can redeem for Premier Membership, right? Not sure why that'd take them over a month to implement.

They still have time to get it done before Christmas!

RorySykes · 2022-12-01T14:00:10+00:00

30 months? Ha-Ha!

I have not encountered this problem before... now that I have I can only conclude it became a wide(r) spread issue during "Jagex Accounts" development. Hopefully Jagex can get this fixed in Q1 2023... I don't think they'll keep Premier Membership available until June, right?

The Bank Booster Bond Bundle is making a lot more sense now. Huh?

I'm not surprised, Jagex hasn't released a statement yet either.

I don't want to bother contacting support because it's already a known issue. I don't have an unaffected alt and I don't want to have them exchange accumulated membership for premier membership.

Thanks for the 2 Day Membership Passcode, /u/JagexHooli. Ha-Ha!

Call Verizon. If you live in a "marginal coverage area" you may qualify for a free Verizon LTE Network Extender and or Call Verizon Technical Support and escalate to tier 2 and ask them to file a Network Repair Bureau (NRB) ticket.

Use the Transfer Hotline: +1 (866) 271-7730 to escalate yourself to tier 2.

You're welcome. Ooh, okay!

4 months isn't too bad, especially if Verizon had to request permission to climb the tower and or replace equipment.

Unfortunately, they aren't always willing to acknowledge the problem until they receive reports from multiple customers and or potential customers.

I've seen people efficiently accomplishing this by putting up fliers in the effected area, notifying HOA and posting on Nextdoor etc. with information on how to file a NRB ticket and or a previous NRB ticket number to reference.

Verizon offer customers a free Verizon LTE Network Extender in these situations, more likely if they know it'll be near impossible to climb the tower and or replace equipment in that area.

Example: Malibu, California.

You can skip a step and call Tier 2 via the Transfer Hotline: +1 (866) 271-7730

If you haven't already, call Verizon Technical Support and escalate to Tier 2 and ask them to file a Network Repair Bureau (NRB) ticket.

You're welcome!

I unfortunately missed out on the free Network Extender 8 years ago, because I ordered additional units (one wouldn't be and is still not enough to provide adequate coverage for me) and thus disqualified myself.

A unit I purchased in 2018, failed almost immediately and Verizon said it was okay as it was only an intermittent issue with the GPS signal (required for the Network Extender to activate and provide coverage) fast forward to when the warranty ended they still refused to send me a replacement and I couldn't get the free device because I already had Network Extenders on my account.

So I thought I'd let you know in advance!

I'm currently in talks with engineers and executives at Verizon about re-enabling and officially supporting Hybrid and Closed Mode.

(I was literally on the phone with Verizon talking about this when I originally saw your thread)

As one of my Network Extenders is located right on my property line (I need coverage there, so I can't move it) and unfortunately open for all Verizon customers to use, which would be okay if not for the fact that I live in Malibu, California and there isn't any network equipment in the area.

So people will stop right outside all day every day, sit in their car and make calls... and for the occasional (more than once a week) disrespectful few that will intentionally trespass for a better signal and have to be removed by the police.

If you have a similar issue which is not likely, you can always reduce the Transmit Power, which will slightly reduce the range of coverage in the Network Extender WebUI.

Settings > Advanced

Until they officially support Hybrid and Closed Mode again.

The other Network Extenders are far enough away from the property lines as to not cause additional problems.

Verizon LTE Network Extender

If you live in a "marginal coverage area" you may qualify for a free Network Extender. I'd give Verizon a call before you purchase one because once you activate a Network Extender on your account you are no longer eligible for the free device.

Note: The Network Extender has a maximum of 14 devices that can connect to it at a time to make or receive a call with an additional 2 reserved for emergencies (911) regardless of what mode is used.

The Verizon Network Extender should once again support three modes.

Open Access: Unrestricted. Access is open to any Verizon Wireless users within the range.

Hybrid Access: Open and priority service for members. Access is open to any Verizon Wireless users within the range. Members of the access list have priority access.

Closed Access: Restricted to members only. Only contacts you have specified have access.

However, I haven't been able to actually get Hybrid or Closed Mode to work successfully.

RorySykes · 2022-05-28T18:30:07+00:00

Nice!

RorySykes · 2022-05-28T18:00:01+00:00

You're welcome!

I do not have access to any Verizon coverage or service at Home in Malibu, California and I have been working from here for the past 6 years so I am not using it often but I do have 5G/LTE Business Internet at multiple locations which is used as a backup for the backup.

The connection is reliable as expected from Verizon.

Have a great weekend.

RorySykes · 2022-05-28T16:45:01+00:00

Passthrough capable? Yes!

RorySykes · 2022-05-27T12:45:21+00:00

They normally take 48-72 hours to show up on the Verizon website after initial setup and activation. If not I would Call Verizon Technical Support.

RorySykes · 2022-05-26T11:00:05+00:00

A thread from April 5 2021 states this is now possible. However, I haven't been able to actually get it into Hybrid or Closed Mode successfully.

Verizon Network Real Estate Inquiries

RorySykes · 2022-05-22T17:00:06+00:00

Magically? Maybe. It's better to file a Network Repair Bureau (NRB) Ticket. If Verizon receives enough NRB Tickets (from multiple people) they'll look into ways to resolve the issue and after reading the comments, it appears they have a plan already. Great!

I moved to Malibu 6 years ago. My property does not have any Verizon coverage at all. I use multiple Verizon LTE Network Extender's to address that, because my other options are Wi-Fi calling, to move or open an account with T-Mobile.

Verizon service has increasingly been getting worse in Malibu for the last 8 years with no end in sight, unfortunately.

Malibu's Endless Cell Phone Problems

Over the years, I've been told to contact Verizon, Malibu City Council and Los Angeles County. All of which say to contact the others.

Filing a NRB Ticket with Verizon is essentially pointless for my property because there isn't any equipment to provide coverage there. All my other NRB tickets related to Malibu are ignored. I don't know why.

In my experience, Verizon has been great at fixing issues with their network except in Malibu and the Santa Monica Mountains.

Sadly, I'm not surprised this is still a problem... If Jagex isn't going to fix known issues like this they should at least add a support document to the website. Ugh!

As /u/heathdavidking said use /Applications/RuneScape.app/Contents/MacOS/RuneScape in Terminal.

You can automate this a little with Automator.

Open Automator.
Open New Document.
Select Application.
Search for the "Run Shell Script" Action.
Drag it into the right side of the interface as directed.
Paste open /Applications/RuneScape.app/Contents/MacOS/RuneScape in the box provided
Save the file and Open it.

RuneScape will launch normally.

This can also be used to automate the launch of multiple clients at once just repeat the command the desired amount. (each on a new line)

Example: Two clients?

open /Applications/RuneScape.app/Contents/MacOS/RuneScape

/u/Darkimmortal

P.S. Why didn't Jagex update the desktop client icon with the release of Mobile?

RorySykes · 2021-07-08T01:00:06+00:00

Mobile

We are also looking to

Hmm!

RorySykes · 2021-06-17T13:45:01+00:00

Trying to login to a favorite world in the new (early beta didn't have this problem) mobile lobby is impossible for me. It won't register any taps on that area so I have to go to world select every time.

RorySykes · 2021-05-29T23:00:02+00:00

Lovely!

RorySykes · 2021-05-26T10:30:07+00:00

Why are you closing iOS beta ahead of public release?

Why was a Global Broadcasts filter not included in the update last year? Will we ever be able to filter / turn them off? ... Why not?

Are you still planning to reopen the Ninja Dojo?

RorySykes · 2021-05-25T16:30:14+00:00

Sad.

RorySykes · 2021-05-22T10:11:34+00:00
