Hello. I bought this game in Estonia (Europe) and this doesn't work in India. It wasn't informed on your site so I didn't know it. What should I do? Thanks for your time,

Hi CARLEST
10
11
I am very sorry to hear about that. Unfortunately at the time of purchase the key was suitable for your region and certain Steam games based from Europe may not be suitable in other regions.
12
13
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused and should you have any other queries, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Hello again. I just wanted to thank you for (really really really) fast 
22
reply. My fastest reply I've ever got :)

24
Since this key didn't work and nobody redeemed it, could it be revoked so I 
25
could get my money back? I missed so many great deals just because I bought 
26
this Skyrim and it's useless because I already have Skyrim myself and my 
27
friend can't use it.

Hi CARLEST,
30
31
I am very sorry to hear that you're wanting a refund for that. Unfortunately as we have already disclosed the game key to you, we can no longer process your refund.
32
33
Please see our refund policy for more details http://www.greenmangaming.com/about/refund-policy/
34
35
I'm afraid that we do not encourage users to gift their keys away for reasons like this where the keys may not work on a different region. Your friend would need to make an account with us in order to buy keys appropriate for his/her region.
36
37
Again, please accept our apologies for the inconvenience and I hope this helps however should you have any other queries, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Was it written on the game page that it has region lock? No. Since it 
43
wasn't written there, I really want refund. I know that you sent me the key 
44
but nobody redeemed or downloaded it. It is your job to write if the game 
45
has region lock (I know that some games have EU region lock, like 
46
Inversion, but you told nothing about Skyrim) So did I made mistake by 
47
buying a game from you? Yes. The game can't be redeemed in India so it 
48
makes me mad. Steam writes if some game has EU region lock, why don't you 
49
do it? I want refund because when nothing is written next to game name or 
50
description, it's probably ROW. Is that hard to write that next to the game 
51
name? Now please, give me refund or make my game ROW, then everything would 
52
be fine and nice. Have a nice day, 
53

Hi CARLEST
56
57
I am very sorry however our position remains as previously stated in that as we have already provided you with the key, we can no longer provide you with the refund.
58
59
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

What the fuck?! Was that my problem that you didn't write that it's region 
65
locked? No. I can't use this key because you didn't do your duty correctly! 
66
I want refund, here and now! You didn't do your duty correctly so it isn't 
67
my problem. I would understand if the region lock thing was written 
68
somewhere. But it wasn't! Now, give me refund and we can close this thing.

Let me quote EU consumer law:
71
72
Wherever you buy a product or service in the EU, whether in a shop or online, the trader must provide you with certain clear, correct and understandable key information about the product or service before you make the purchase.
73
74
Did you do it? No. There was nothing written about region lock. So the thing you did is against the law.
75

76
What now? Please message me so we can discuss it.

78
Hi CARLEST
79
80
I am very sorry you feel that way however please note that we have provided your account, which is an EU based account with the correct key as for your region.
81
82
As previously advised, should your friend wish to purchase the game from us, he would need to create an account from India and he will receive the appropriate key for his region.
83
84
I hope this helps however should you have any other queries, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Ofcourse! He should buy himself his birthday present! Why the fuck should he buy it to himself when I wanted to make him a present?? You're still talking against the law.

91
"Wherever you buy a product or service in the EU, whether in a shop or ONLINE, the trader MUST provide you with certain CLEAR, CORRECT and UNDERSTANDABLE key information about the product or service before you make the purchase."
92
93
Did you say that it is an EU key on the game page? No, you didn't. So your information wasn't clear, correct and understandable. Now I want my GMG credits back an move along.

107
108
Thank you for your ticket.

And again, the same copy-paste text. Could you please type something 
121
yourself? But what if I plan to travel to India? Then the game is for my 
122
personal use and it wouldn't work because of the region lock. Well, you 
123
said it's for personal use, okay. But there is NOTHING about region lock!
124
125
Let me quote EU consumer law, again:
126
127
Wherever you buy a product or service in the EU, whether in a shop or 
128
ONLINE, the trader MUST provide you with certain CLEAR, CORRECT and 
129
UNDERSTANDABLE key information about the product or service BEFORE you 
130
make the purchase. 
131
You didn't write anything about the region lock. I found it when my friend 
132
wanted to redeem it and got region lock message. So your information wasn't 
133
clear, correct and understandable. If I'm right, the thing you did is 
134
against the law. Now I want my GMG credits back so I could by some other 
135
game for MYSELF.

Welcome back, CARLEST
155
This ticket has been rated as Bad, I'm unsatisfied
156
With the following comment:
157
This is first time when I have to rate support bad. Your quality of support was really poor. I asked if I could get refund or ROW key, since you didn't inform me that your key is region-locked. 3 people answered my ticket and I got lots of copy-paste messages. I'd like to thank Daniele, even if I didn't like what she did, she was the only one who typed her message herself. I got lots of messages that sounded like this: "Hey, this isn't our fault so fuck off!" You only said it more politely. This really made me to change my mind about your company. When I started to use GMG, it was the best company I had ever used. I bought some games from you and were really happy. Now you're the worst company I've met so far. I've had many issues which needed support (Nothing to do about GMG) and I almost always got a solution. Once I didn't get a solution but the support was still really good. You ask why? They typed those messages manually and didn't use copy-paste! They gave me solutions (None of them worked for me though) and they tried to help. You just sent me copy-paste messages and didn't even really bother to help me. And then when I found out that you did something against the law, you just blocked me. Is that what customer support needs to do? No, no and more no. They need to help people and give them solutions, but you didn't do it. Would that be hard to add EU after the game name? No! You would just have to message someone who works with your site to do this and this problem wouldn't happen. It's really sad how good company like you turned into really really bad one. And again, blocking your customer who told you that did something wrong is really disappointing. Nobody redeemed that Skyrim key, so would that be hard to revoke it and give me my GMG credits back? I don't think it would be hard. Anyway, you're the worst support I've ever had. If you don't stop this, you'll probably lose many customers and get big dirty stamp on your reputation. I don't really care about the game anymore, I care about the idea how you just blocked me. It really sounded like "Fuck off!" I don't think that I will ever forget what you did with me (and probably with many others). Good bye, ~Your highly disappointed customer.
