IGE

This company is pure fraud. I only ordered the bare minimum of gold so I was only out 19.99. It's been over a week past the 24 hour deadline for delivery. The same as everyone else rating this crap site, nothing but excuses. I have since filed a fraud claim with my bank. I am filing with the Cyber Fraud Division in both the U.S. and in the U. K. where their 3rd party pay site is located. Skillrx/moneybookers. I would recommend that everyone do the same. File with PayPal, File with your bank. File a fraud report with your respective government agencies. Spread the word, Shut this piece of crap business down.

This used to be a good way to buy gold, but not anymore. Now this resource is crap. They get your money and then they don't deliver - and they are using all possible ways to cheat you - from fake "delivery" emails (for example at the time you wasn't even online they say there was a face-to-face delivery) followed by "investigation" followed by promisses of redelivery which never happened - to monthes of excuses. My last order is 3 months old and honestly I don't hope to get it at all. Stay away from this piece of crap!

Being a businessman myself, I look at Life as I am a Problem Solver. If someone has a problem, I have a solution.

My problem: I need credits for SWTOR
IGE.com's solution: Buy credits from us

Simple and straight forward, right?

My problem: I need credits for SWTOR
IGE.com 's solution: Buy credits from us (we will gladly take your money, jerk you around forever without any concrete reason why we have not delivered, repeated attempts to obtain details but get multiple standard format replies with the same "We usually deliver within 24 hours").

I have done business with this website in the past with little issue, but this has certainly changed my opinion of the site. Either they have changed owners or just given up taking care of their customers.

I've been a customer of IGE.com for more a couple years, and until now have had no problems. But now? Buyer beware! On February 16,2014 I placed an order for 5K platinum, at a cost of $49.99. Luckily I went through PayPal, because three days later, I'm still waiting. I got no response from several emails. Also, the website looks like it has Live Chat, but IT HAS NO LIVE CHAT. I tried every means to get a Live Chat window, but it never happened. So I opened a Dispute with PayPal, and almost immediately, guess what? I get an email from Louise in IGE's customer service department apologizing for their slow service, and begging me to give them one more opportunity to make it right. Same exact words as others here who have had problems with IGE. So I reply that I want what I paid for. Simple. She replies back that I need to close my dispute with PayPal first. Again, BUYER BEWARE. If you close your open dispute, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO OPEN IT AGAIN. You've been warned. Luckily, I did not close the dispute, and instead sent her another email stating the reasons why, and telling her in no uncertain terms that because IGE ALREADY HAS MY MONEY, there is no reason to close the dispute until I get my plat. Simple. Straightforward. Fair. I'm still awaiting a response. Don't think I'll get one, though. Now I'm left waiting a few more days until I can escalate my dispute to a claim. You better believe that I will, too. I'm out $50, with nothing to show for it. I'm just glad PayPal stands by its customers. So, once again for the hard-of-hearing: DO NOT USE IGE.COM! YOU WILL BE SORRY!

Thought I would balance out some of the bad reviews with a more recent one. If you are looking for gold in under 24 hours, try somewhere else. They do take 48 hours + to deliver but they do eventually get it to you. I ordered 22k for WoW and was expecting it within a few hours. Was dissapointed that it took longer, but they did respond to my emails within around 12 hours each time. In their emails they explained it will take 24-48 hours. Was dissapointed again when they sent it about 12 hours late BUT at least I got it.
Its not a scam, but they are a bit slow.

My most revent email to IGE:

I have now written 3 emails (amongst many, many more) which have not been responded to in respect to the order I placed with IGE on the 27th of February (17 days ago). I have still not received delivery and despite numerous requests for a refund, have not received that either.

I have said on several occassions that it is not acceptable business practices to sell a product that you not only do not have, but also clearly do not have the means to produce. There is no other business on the planet that would be able to get away with such dubious and unethical practices - and of course people are going to be very angry if you steal from them. It should be said, in the last 17 days, I have farmed the amount of gold myself that I had purchased from IGE - so it is beyond pathetic that the business isn't able to do the same.

I expect an immediate response to this email and immediate resolution to this matter, whether that be to fill the order, or to issue a refund.

They stopped even bother responding with their pathetic excuses and run around answers. This business is a complete and utter SHAM.

I had been hesitant about buying gold for my wow account but finally bit the bullet. I used IGE although they weren't the cheapest they have been around the longest. I ordered over 20k in gold and was worried at first as I only got 1300g in the mail but soon after I got another 8k and the rest shortly after that. They say you get your order within 24 hours and I got my total order in less then that. I would highly recommend using IGE for your in game currency purchases and if I have the need in the future I will use them again.

I just made a order from IGE a couple days ago, 8000gold. I read these reviews and read a history on IGE before i made my order. Even though IGE has improved a lot from 2008-2010. It all summed up. It was still risky to buy gold online. However I took the risk and ordered from IGE anyways. I ordered from IGE because, they are most reputable company. From 1-10. I give IGE a "10." My ordered was to be mailed... In WoW there is about a 1hour wait for mail between virtual characters. I recieved my gold through mail, about one 1/2 hour after I made the order. No hassle. No Talk. No wisper. Just a simple mail. I'm very happy. I would recommend IGE to anyone.

On another note. The history I read about IGE. The company went bad around 2006-2008. Someone bought out IGE and rebuilt their service. They have much better service now, from my experience and othe 2008-2010 reviews. I'm guessing it just depends and varies on which server and which MMO your playing on.

To start off right at the point, I use PayPal for all my internet purchases. This site is so bad that even with an open claim with PayPal, they come up with excuse after excuse to excuse their obligation to deliver paid for goods that have been confirmed. The money for my purchased item has been confirmed by PayPal and was already removed from my bank account. The site guarantees 24 hour deliver, since most people who buy these goods don't have the time to "grind" for them. It has been over 72 hours, and this site has become completely non-responsive, and unreachable. There is no live help, or contact, and they are all Chinese. I want the world to know of this site and their rude replies back to me through PayPal. They want to take your money and run. Not only did they not deliver, but they also sent me a virus attached to an email with a Keylogger attached, to boot. This company hides behind their internet name, with malicious side hack attmepts to steal your personal information. DO NOT USE THIS SITE!

They might have been really good and reliable once upon a time, but that time most certainly ISNT now. I ordered from them at 8pm LAST night and the person that took my order online assured me that I would get my gold in 1 hour, at the most, 3, because my server was FULLY stocked and their usual 24 hours would not apply. Well, she kept telling me I had to stay LOGGED IN to my character because there was a very good chance of me being banned if I did not pick up my gold IMMEDIATLY after it was delivered. So I got on my main and I waited. An hour had passed, I waited some more. 3,4 hours passed, and I was passing out. Hoping they would send an email like she said they would do, I set my alarm loud for email notifications, and went to sleep. I woke up at 6:30 this morning, checked my main, nothing, checked my email, nothing. Waited some more. Finally around 8am I tried logging onto their site and seeing if there was a reason for the holdup. I tracked my order and it said the same ol thing it said 5 min after I bought it. That my order was in the process of being sent to me IMMEDIATLY. So. I tried accessing their 24/7 online chat support. No mater WHAT option I selected, all it kept sending me to was to EMAIL THEM. Would NOT let me speak to ANYONE. After reading how they answer all their emails in an hour, I decided to give it a shot. This was at 8am. It is now almost 10:30am and nothing back from them. No gold. No reply. They have NO contact telephone number. Worst experience I have ever ever had. Going to report them to paypal for fraud.
