just a quick quick question: I already have a UO account that I created a long time ago, my internet was very bad back then so I never go past using the free trial. I just got UO SE and noticed that it contained two serial numbers: one for new accounts and one for exisitng accounts. My question is, will I still be able to use the 30 day trial if I use the existing account number? or am i better off using the new account number and making a completely new account?

thx in advance.

no one knows?

From memory, upgrading your existing account won't give you 30 days free play.
The 30 days is only for new accounts.

aye the 30 day free is when you create new account or pass the key number to a friend to join UO ... the other key is to upgrade your current (although closed) account.

Or you can try it yourself and let us know. "hehe"

yeah the one code is for new players and will allow you to create a new account and play that account for fre for 30 days.

thanks for the replies guys. guess I will just try it when i know i have enough free time. thx again!

Hope to see you active soon!

If you do want some free time, I think you _can_ use the 15 day free trial on an existing account, then start your paid time after that. Not the 30 day trial tho, that's for new accounts only.
Also to save a potential foiled plan, if you plan to make a new account for newbie items on the 30 day free (like I did), don't bother. Newbie items are a thing of the past.

About the trial periods, is there way to get a trial period for an existing account? I thought I read up there from someone about a 15 day trial period for existing accounts but just wanted to ask. I'd love to see if my char is still around, but not sure how long UO will save toons.
