I used to buy games from GOG, but had a problem getting a game to work with my system. I tried contacting thier tech support many, many times, only to be ignored. I finally e-mailed a request to either refund my money, give me a credit towards a different game or close my account. After the third time sending that request, they closed my account. Not once did anyone at the company answer any of my e-mails, or try to resolve the issue.
Be warned,
