My cousin is using a trial account right now to see whether or not he likes the game. He seems to be loving it and wants to upgrade to a full acount. However, I want to do the recruit-a-friend with him and Im wondering if his active trial account can be used with the recruit a friend? I havent seen anything that says you can but I also havent seen anything that says you cant.

So does he HAVE to make a brand new account? Hes almost at level 12 and it would just be nice if he didnt have to start over.

Q u o t e:
Im bumping this thread because i have another questions.

So I sent him the recruit a friend key and he used it. Now instead of having to wait the whole 10 days to get all the goodies that come with a linked account can he just make his first payment now?


He needs to upgrade that trial that you have linked under RAF.

It can take up to 72 hours for the full upgrade to kick in, but normally it's a bit quicker than that.

Your 'goodies' come after he's made 2 full payments. The quickest way to accomplish that is adding a 60 day timecard right from the start. If he uses a credit card, it won't bill till all his free time has expired.
