Chapitre 561: Chapter 184 Old Tang: Occasionally, I Play the Lawyer's Tricks Part 3

Online gaming companies that decide to cease the operation of online games or transfer the operational rights of online games must announce it 60 days in advance.

Unused Virtual Coins and unexpired game services of online game users should be refunded in legal currency at the purchase proportion or replaced with other forms accepted by users.

This is now the practice of many game companies. Announcing it 60 days in advance all stems from this, and basically, it can be said that game companies are law-abiding.

However, these game companies only comply partially with the law. The regulations specify that refunds should either be in legal currency or in other forms accepted by the users.

That is to say, if users do not accept the alternative compensation provided, they can claim a refund in legal currency. However, the compensation plan offered by most companies is in "other forms", which is why Old Tang said they indeed comply, but only halfway.
