Check with relevant departments (NOC or ETC).

transactions are not processing as usual.

them to investigate further and contact us once their investigation
is complete.

the issue has been resolved and CS will monitor the situation.

6.0 1) Enhanced Transaction Controller (ETC) - handles and manages all
Definitions: financial transactions on behalf of players, customer support and the
game system. The ETC enforces all financial limit policies and provides
the foundation for fraud detection and prevention. ETC provides no user
interface as interaction with users is accomplished via other software
components in the system.

2) Network Operations Centre (NOC) – acts as a point of escalation for
CS for issues relating to production tools and services. NOC provides
real time monitoring of the game system and engages all relevant parties
when a production issue/failure is detected. NOC is a central point for
notifications to all departments in relation to scheduled
updates/downtime.
